Second adventure – the Tree Top Adventure Canopy Ride

Start of the Ultimate Adventure

For this ride, you should be in a group of 3 to maximize the seats. For couples, this can be a good ride for some quiet moments together and sweet chats. But for loners who want to be with the trees then go ahead and ride on your own. Hehe.

Riding the Canopy

As you can see in the picture above, seats are just made in plastic like a typical chair but hanging and without any feet. Ropes used are made of hose and sealed with heavy duty tapes and wires. Honestly, looking at it, would make you feel uncomfortable, doubt if this thing really works and if these seats can really support you… Waaaaahhh… I got scared at that time and was very careful in riding and really held on those hose real tight. Haha.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride...

During the ride, you just have to enjoy the view but if you are afraid of heights never look down! Ride between platforms takes about 5 minutes or less, short cables but waiting time can be long in changing cables. When we had this ride, it was a weekend; there were a lot of people so the whole ride took us almost 2 hours.

Canopy ride in Action

When you reached the platforms, you can also be educated with some basic information about these old big trees… Canopy ride guides/assistants are also very friendly, entertaining and share their different funny stories.

Learn something about the trees...

If you get bored with their informative signs, entertaining guides, then all you can do now is to take some pictures, just like this… Hehe.

Take shots while waiting for your ride...

Overall, the whole ride was too long, boring, and scary for me. I’m not really afraid of heights but being 100ft above the ground seeing only the trees, riding those plastic chairs in hose cables and feet floating in the air is quite a challenge and a bit scary. I would suggest you try this ride just to get the thrilling experience but riding it again never came into my mind. Sorry…Hahaha.
