      First time but a ton of fun even in the pouring rain. A must do at least once. The staff are very helpful and patient, very safe. A fun activity for the whole family.

      This is a wonderful activity for the whole family. This is in the Ganaraska Forest Centre in Northumberland County. I am over 50 and I could do it so I am sure almost anyone can. It's an obstacle course up in the trees. It is very challenging but doable. You also do zip lining. That is the most fun part. My only advice is wear longer pants, below the knees and take water with you. It took about 2 hours to complete the course.

      We tried this out with 5 of our friends, It was challenging but worth the drive. They star easy and get harder, little did we know they have the hardest course in Ontario and most were feeling it before 1/2 way through. I would go back again, especially after the amazing sleep I had that night. The staff were helpful and always watching to make sure everyone was always clipped in.

      This is the second treetop adventure for us. The first one was in Holiday Valley, just South of Buffalo, NY. Thankfully we have visited that one first, as it has several true beginner courses for a more gradual approach. They also have more interesting, creative challenges of different types. And interestingly it is less pricey.Also, my husband did the zip line at the Toronto CNE recently and had other aerial adventures, so he is well versed.We visited Ganaraska on September 1, 2014.We are both in our late fifties and we could handle 4 out of the 6 courses without problems. We are rather fit though, I would say. And by the way, I have fear of heights, but I noticed that treetop trekking adventures help to actually get rid of it. Before I forget... Bring gloves, if you want to save the skin of your palms. Those cables you hold on to are metallic and rough to the touch, and you'll get sore in no time. Gloves with rubber on the palms for better adherence would be best.It is a good idea to wear a top with long sleeves. There will be contact between the cables and your upper and lower arms when you struggle to keep your balance on the bridges, as you lean heavily against those cables, so you'll get scratches in the process if the skin is not protected. Also, bring plenty of water as you are going to sweat a lot. You can leave it in a storage area right there and drink it between your courses to stay hydrated.We were too tired to go on the Tarzan/ nets type of course and another one was just way out of our league, like a double diamond. The Falcon course was fun, the bridges between the zip lines were OK. But for some of the zip lines the landing was rough. The landing platform was steep and short, so twice I almost bumped into the pole (it is cushioned though) after gaining lots of speed. But it was I guess part of the fun. If they would enlarge that landing platform, it would also be a more comfortable standing position for you when moving your safety cables from the zip line to the next challenge.As a remark, the cables on the bridges are not set tight - hence they are wobbly, so you need good overall strength to keep yourself balanced. Men seem better at recovering from impossible body postures. Many bridges only provide one cable to hang on to while crossing. That cable has lots of slack for most courses and it is hung low, which makes keeping one's balance more difficult for adults. A child can handle it much better as they hold on to it above their head. The adults have it at chest or waist level and it creates lots of swinging and swaying, compounded with the generally wobbly bridges under their feet.We felt good and proud after tackling those courses, but today I feel sore in my upper body. The legs are OK, I was well prepared as I ran almost daily lately.I am looking forward to checking out the treetop trekking in Barrie (Horseshoe Valley) and other places in Ontario. I would recommend Ganaraska Forest to people who keep in good shape.

      My family and I were part of a larger group that tried out the trekking, most of us for the first time. The guides were very friendly, professional and patient. The age range in our group was 10-73, and many were not all that fond of heights. But we all made it through the training session and the first course. After that we were free to go on our own for the remainder of our three hour session. Best course in my opinion was the Flying Falcon - mostly zip lines with a few "games". Definitely enjoyed my time in the Ganaraska Forest - a work out for both body and mind! Would definitely go back, or to any of the other four locations.

      Great way for the whole family to get out and play together. Yes it requires some upper body strength. Don't worry if you are afraid of heights. As long as you have your equipment attached you won't go far. The advanced courses are a blast and Flying Falcon is a good way to end the day. That is the course with the zip lines and a few easy games. Definitely going back.

      This adventure is not for people with a fear of heights! It is like a confidence course in the trees! You wear zip-line web gear and go from platform to platform, 30-40ft up in the trees, and move across swinging logs, nets, cable wires, mobile wood plank steps and zip-lines, to name a few of the challenges.Staff was friendly and professional and safety is the priority. It's a bit pricey - $56 plus tax for an adult, $40-ish for a kid, a bit cheaper if you are a family of 4 or more. But it is worth it as it is such a unique experience.That price is for a 3hr use of the courses - there is beginner, intermediate, and advanced, plus a part that's just 4 adjoining zip-lines. You have to done the beginner and intermediate to do the 4 zip-lines.It is somewhat physically challenging re: upper body/arm strength when you are holding on to guide wires for dear life!! (you are always carbaneered x2 onto support lines.)There are now 4 locations - Barrie, Hunstville, Northumberland and Brampton.Highly recommended to check this out!

      Spent the afternoon at Treetop Trekking in the Ganaraska Forest on Wednesday with my wife and one of our daughters who is entering 4th year at Trent U in Peterborough.The orientation and initial testing was very well organized and the guide was clearly well trained and made it very clear from the beginning that "Safety was # 1". Seemed like no time and we swinging and zipping through the Ganaraska Forest with ease.It is the perfect place for young kids to bring their parents and/or grandparents and kick their butts and have a great day in the process.Don't forget your camera and some drinking water.

      Second year in a row we have done this as a family. Orientation better this time. Courses challenging, yet not impossible. 13 yr old daughter and her friend flew thru all, including newest Timberwolf. We will do it again!

      My husband, 9 year old son and myself went today for our treetop trekking adventure. The staff/guides were great. We were outfitted with harnesses and helmets and given an orientation with instruction on how to go through the "games". The guides and staff were very encouraging to me (I'm really afraid of heights). My son and I went through 2 of the courses, while my husband did all 5. It was a great experience for all of us, but I wouldn't attempt it unless you are ready to deal with the heights and you are in relatively good shape. It was fun and we would definitely do it again!!
