Do you wish to dangle from great heights while you snooze?

Yes, you do. And you might as well do it in Bavaria, Germany, at an adventure resort called Waldseilgarten. Here at the mountain retreat, you will have three sleep-up-high options. They are as follows:

• Sleep on a platform in the trees, about 22 feet (7 meters) above the ground. The platform is just like you would imagine a platform to be — it’s made of wood and looks like the floor of a tree house. You’ll need a sleeping pad and sleeping bag, and you’ll eat dinner and breakfast on the platform, among the boughs and leaves and whatnot. ($166 per person, per night)
• Sleep in a portaledge (tent) dangling from a tree. You’ll need rope assistance and tree climbing skills/training to ascend and descend from your hanging tent. (Plan your bathroom breaks wisely.) The tents sway from large branches of large trees. Meanwhile you’ll have a gorgeous view of the mountains. ($333 per person, per night)
• Sleep in a portaledge (tent) attached to a cliff face — just like the rock climbers do it. You can sleep as high up as 3,280 to 6,561 feet (1,000 to 2,000 meters) or as low as 328 to 984 feet (100 to 300 meters). Either way, if you fall out of bed, it’s going to hurt. Given the risk, this type of sleeping arrangement is set up by appointment only, and it’s not cheap. ($1,186 per person, per night)
