Itinerary:
Get harnessed in and live an unforgettable experience at the tops of the trees. Travel through fun and challenging courses high above the forest floor and zip lines for that adrenaline rush. "Stride along the top of the trees with the use of rope bridges, zip lines, climbing nets, footbridges, swings and more! Equipped with a harness you will progress, in complete safety through different levels of treetop courses which are adapted to one's age, height and strength. The adventure will begin with a mandatory initiation given by a trained guide who will explain the safety rules and how to use your cords, carabineers and pulley. During your canopy tour, this equipment will be connected to a cable which ensures your safety." Ganaraska is the newest family of the Arbraska Treetop, it has different courses than the one in Horseshoe.
