5.00This is not something I would usually do when I signed up for it. Somehow, I wasn’t really thinking about what it entailed. And when I realized what it entailed, I decided to do it do it anyway .It was little bit scary walking on those bridges, but I had the most amazing guides, Jordan and Meg. They kept me calm and we’re extremely encouraging. I am so glad that I did this.
Excellent Trip

5.00A great way to appreciate this well preserved redwood forest. A passel of hanging bridges of every shape and kind. The zip lines were fun, and the final step off experience was unique. Hook up to a speed break, take one step forward, and drop to the ground like a paratrooper who knows what they're doing.
Just do it!

5.00I attended Redwoods Forest the day before for the tree walk and glow worm caves, Jordan was working on the caves this day and took a few moments to chat with me. I expressed that I was scared of heights but he assured me that the altitude activity was really fun and many people with a fear of heights would do it so I decided to book on for the following day. Meg and Jordan were our guides and they made it so much fun, despite feeling pretty nervous to begin with I had such a good time and I’m so glad I did it. They were both really personable and friendly and I had a lovely group doing it alongside me. Absolutely chuffed I went through with it and would likely do it again!
