Open Climbs

Picture
Open Enrollment Climbs (Open Climbs) allow you the opportunity to climb into tall and mature trees using rope and saddle, under the watchful eye of a tree climbing adventure guide.

No experience is necessary & all equipment and instruction is provided.

We keep it simple for you...we handle the safety inspections and provide all the gear so you can experience recreational tree climbing safely.

Register directly with Treetop Explorer through our online store. On-site registration is available if climber capacity has not been reached.
