Looking for some adventure to do with the kids this summer? Looking for a fantastic day out for your year-end function, or have you got a birthday party coming up? While the norm would be to arrange a fancy dinner at a very expensive restaurant, or battle through some very painful three hours of kids running circles around you at home – why not do something completely different and experience a combination of thrills and beautiful views with tree canopy tours?
An Eco-Adventure that has Stolen the Hearts of Thrill Seekers Worldwide
An adventure of a lifetime that will never be forgotten, tree canopy tours are currently the fastest growing eco-adventure that have stolen the hearts of thrill seekers worldwide. Yes, everyone has caught the bug, and for very good reason. Originating all the way from the jungles of Costa Rica – what was a system used by biologists to study the diversity and habitat of an inaccessible ecosystem has turned into an extreme eco-tourism activity.
What’s It All About?
A treetop experience dedicated to offering both children and adults a unique adventure as they move from tree to tree, tree canopy tours, also known as zip lining, is a devised system of cables and platforms built around tall old trees in lush forests. Using cables, harnesses, helmets, gloves, a pulley system and platforms, cables run on a downward slope so that gravity does all the work. With its popularity reaching many countries, tree canopy tours have now reached South Africa and can be found at Acrobranch.
