The thin wooden plank held by ropes on which she stands sways like crazy. Her gaze goes into the depths: the 10 metres that the small sign at the ascent of the climbing path indicated as the height suddenly seem at least twice as high to her. Was it really such a good idea to let this date take place in a high ropes climbing park?

“Hey, you can do it, you’re doing really well,” he calls to her encouragingly from the next tree platform. And a few steps later, when she’s almost there too, he reaches out his arm to her: “Come on, I’ll pull you up.” – Test passed! A real gentleman, then….

The Fine Art Dating

Sounds like a date to remember, doesn’t it? Especially as love researchers assure us that meeting at high altitude can inspire feelings of infatuation! The reason: we also subconsciously link the slight excitement with the company we are in. Not a bad prerequisite for sparks to fly.

But really good dates are as different as people: some prefer it classic, for others it can’t be crazy enough. While for some there’s nothing more romantic than a walk around a lake with long conversations, others get palpitations when they whiz across the water with their date in a motorboat.

Supposedly, hot drinks are also very beneficial for dating – because the hormones also start to bubble and somewhere in the abdominal cavity, lots of little butterflies hatch out of their cocoons with joy.

These 50 date ideas inspire love, regardless of whether you are freshly in love or have been together for a long time. What’s more, these date ideas are suitable for all seasons and for those who are more active in nature as well as those who are more comfortable.
