Descriptions
For all EarthJoy climbs. When you arrive, the instructors will have all the ropes set and tied. You will be taught how to move the knots in sequence to ascend and descend safely. You will be secured in a saddle harness and safety helmet. View our STEP BY STEP VIDEO!! It is “challenge by choice” as you decide how high you want to climb. Lie in hammocks, swing in tree chairs and learn to surf branches as you meet other adventurous people.

"Being an adventurist at heart, and loving the outdoors, I have always looked for ways to push myself to the limits. What I found most fulfilling in the newest "adventure" was that all the physical demands, the mental challenges and strategizing, the adrenalin rush, and the sense of accomplishment were met while in the throws of finding a connectedness and a certain "Oneness" with the trees and nature."
