Not a bad spot to check out if you’re a first-time zipliner. Pros: — Beautiful scenery, especially on some of the longer zips. — Well-maintained courses that are fun to move through. — Helpful staff. Cons: — Don and I are well-versed zipliners and did not find the courses to be very challenging; as such, we whipped through them in much less time than we had been given as an estimate(1.5 vs. 2.5−3 hours), and probably would have finished sooner had we not been slowed down by groups that were ahead of us. This was not an issue for the majority of the people in our group. — We had to wait for the guides to catch up with us before moving on to subsequent courses(15 – 20 minutes, in our case). I believe this was probably due to fewer staff being present over the long weekend, as other participants indicated that they’d never experienced this waiting before. — I believe that the addition of more courses — especially more challenging ones — would be of great benefit. — Bathrooms(Portapotties) leave much to be desired. — For $ 60, it’s not the greatest value — the ability to repeat courses would improve this. Variety is key with ziplining. OnTree, located in the backwoods of Nova Scotia, is the best ziplining obstacle course that we’ve encountered due to its extensive, unique courses and numerous levels of difficulty. Treetop was good for a one-time visit, but I really don’t think that we’ll be back in the future.

What a great adventure! 3 courses and some sweet ziplines made this a great day. Took about 2.5hrs to go through everything. The obstacles can be challenging but, you are hooked safely to the wire, so if you ‘fall’ you don’t actually fall. This definite gives confidence when you see an obstacle that makes you seriously consider the sanity of the creator. WEARGLOVES! FULLGLOVES! You can bring your own or buy some for $ 5. Fingerless gloves will not help you much. That’s what I used and I got a couple blisters, but I will have full gloves for next time. You don’t need a ton of upper body strength to do this, kids are also allowed at a certain height. Don’t think fitness is a huge factor, but you DO need to be able to climb the ladders and do a little walking uphill. Having upper body strength does help, but you’ll do just fine if you’re not too confident. There were people in my group of all fitness levels and heights and we all did great and had a lot of fun. I had more fun doing this than plain ziplining in the Caribbean. There is a discount if you go in the morning. Also, there were no bugs in the morning either and it was just starting to get hot out when we finished. A great active place to go! I’d definitely go again!

The staff was amazing and super friendly. They were all young and energetic and it made the environment really nice to be in. The difficulty of the course was I’d say 4⁄5. If you are not active and used to exercise then it’d be really hard for you as there is a lot of the course where you need a whole lot of core and arm strength. Overall a really amazing experience since there was a pretty equal amount of ziplining vs obstacles. Definitely would go again!
