A small inground trampoline is a trampoline that’s partly built into the ground and takes up little space in your garden.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an inground trampoline?

An inground trampoline is placed partly into the ground, so the frame sits low — about 20 cm above the surface. This makes it safer, easier to use, less sensitive to wind, and gives your garden a cleaner look. The low step also helps the air escape smoothly under the jumping mat while you’re bouncing.

What is the best inground trampoline?

That really depends on who’s going to use it and how it will be used.

The best inground trampoline is one that’s still solid as a rock 10 years after installation — no rust on the springs or the frame, maybe just a new mat, pad or safety net along the way.

Is an inground trampoline safer for children?

Yes. An inground trampoline is generally safer because the entry is low and the fall height is significantly reduced. Kids can get on and off more easily without the risk of tripping. It’s still essential to use a safety net, especially for younger children.

What are the benefits of an inground trampoline?

An inground trampoline is less visible than a regular trampoline on legs. One advantage of an inground trampoline compared to a flat-to-the-ground trampoline (fully sunken) is that kids can’t get onto it as easily with toys — and the same goes for a robot lawnmower. Digging in an inground trampoline is also a lot less work and costs much less than installing a completely sunken flat-to-the-ground model.

What types of inground trampolines are there?

We define 2 types of inground trampolines:

Inground trampoline – the legs sit at ground level, with the trampoline sticking out about 20 cm.
Flat-to-the-ground trampoline – the frame is completely flush with the ground.

Is it a lot of work to dig in a trampoline?

Yes. Digging in a trampoline takes quite some work. An inground trampoline (20 cm above ground) is easier to install than a Flat-to-the-Ground trampoline. Most of the effort goes into digging the hole and backfilling the soil. Assembling the trampoline itself usually takes 1–2 hours, depending on the type, size, and whether a safety net is included.

What should you watch out for when installing an inground trampoline?

Check first if there are any pipes, cables, or other stuff underground that shouldn’t get damaged. Always follow the installation instructions in the manual. No physical manual? Grab the digital version or just contact your trampoline supplier.

Who can dig in my trampoline?

Some trampoline suppliers offer a trampoline dig-in service. Since they are often the supplier or even the manufacturer, they usually know the installation best – so they’re often your best bet. There are also plenty of gardeners who can handle the (digging) work for you.

Note: Installing a trampoline isn’t just digging a hole. Make sure you check how someone plans to install your trampoline. When in doubt, contact your trampoline supplier.

How much does it cost to dig in a trampoline?

Costs vary depending on the size of the trampoline and ground conditions. For a professional dig-in service, prices usually range from €700 to €1,800, including digging, placing the trampoline, and finishing the edges.

Do I need to anchor an inground trampoline?

No, that’s not necessary. Inground trampolines usually come with ground anchoring materials.
