unjumpable

Too high over

Unjumpable describes an obstacle or barrier that cannot be jumped over, whether due to height, width, or other physical characteristics.

The term appears most often in equestrian contexts, where a fence or hedge may be deemed unjumpable for safety reasons, and in video games, where certain gaps or walls are designed to block player progress.

The canyon was simply unjumpable, so we had to find another route.
