Celebrated my daughter's sixth birthday here with her grade 1 classmates. Their birthday package was perfect for the size of our party and the outdoor environment was just right for children. Everyone including the parents had an enjoyable time. Highly recommend this place for children and adult outdoor adventure fun. read more

Treetop Trekking - Discovery Kid's Course - Ziplining Near Me - Whitchurch-Stouffville, Ontario

See all

We went as a group of 6 to Treetop Trekking Stouffville for a friend's birthday and did the 3 hour experience. 4 of us took a Lyft from downtown Toronto and it cost around $60 after tipping, which wasn't too expensive after we split it. We arrived in the morning with all the little kids and their parents on a Saturday and it was raining. But the park didn't close and it was actually not that bad in the actual trees. However, we did get very wet and some of the wooden obstacles were quite slippery. I would definitely recommend wearing the right clothes! Wearing grippy running shoes helped get through the obstacle course - even in the rain. And the long pants and long sleeve hiking jacket kept me from getting rope burns. It was overall a good time and would definitely recommend it to other people. The only thing is, we were only able to get through 4/6 courses with a short break in between because we were a bit more cautious than other groups. It took us 4 hours so we ended up getting kicked out in the end because it was only supposed to take 3 hours. I wish they had let us stay a bit longer. 6 courses in 3 hours would only be possible for people who are already quite athletic I think. Otherwise staff were friendly, the orientation at the beginning was helpful, and the snacks are a really good price. I think it was less than $3 for a mini can of Pringles or a small bag of chip nuts. There's also water and popsicles available too. Washrooms weren't the cleanest but I wouldn't expect them to be in an outdoorsy place like this. read more

Absolutely ridiculous!!! they should really redo the requirements on your website. How does it make any sense that when 2 inches too short for the big course, they are too old for the discovery course?! Not pleased. Drove from holland landing to find out these very excited kids going to celebrate their birthdays together could not do the course they had their heart set on. I feel the regulations should be revisited by the TSSA. read more

---- Poor management (No supervision; not organized) ---- Poor front desk service (RUDE, inpatient, not responsible) 1. I spent $500 on a birthday party with shelter this May. There was no instruction from management and no sign showing this area was reserved. So I was ended up to share it with another party who didn't pay for the fee. I went to office and waited manager to come solve the issue for long time. When the manager final came, she asked me to leave because she thought I was the one who didn't pay for the birthday party!! Even I told her I was the party owner, she looked at me with annoying and inpatient face! Ridiculous!! 2. Today I visited this location again. Staff showed no interest in her job but attitudes and her eye-rolling. No greeting is standardized service I can get here I guess. Ok that's fine. But no explanation (not even a single word!) for people cutting the line to the person who was waiting in line patiently is totally NOT ok! The staff saw me was there a long time ago and didn't even ask me for anything. She just ignored me and helped the guy who just came and cut the line in front of me. When I was questioning it, staff was inpatient and rude saying this guy had online tickets. What if I also purchased tickets online? Did she ever checked? The worst thing was that the staff lied and said the guy arrived before me! Her manager believed her and asked me to move on?! And this manager also told me they serviced that guy because he asked first?! If anyone whoever asks first can get it done first, why do we need to line up?! Back to the policy your staff mentioned. If there is no fast lane for online purchases or membership, no sign/ wording to explain online purchase can skip the long line, you should NOT expect other people to know/understand your assumed policy. Is this your policy to let people buy online tickets to cut the line even if there is only one employee working and other people still waiting in line?! I always purchase tickets online except this time. But I always wait for my turns! ---- Conclusion: Both front desk staff and managers need to be well trained for customer service in this location. read more

As the business no longer allow reviews to be added on Google, i thought i better write it here. There are some major safety concerns to this adventure park; I believe, mainly due to cost saving measures taken on when they first build the place. First, the structure should not be build on trees. Oftentimes it is shaking and swaying while people are moving about because a lot of the trees they are using are very unwieldy. I have also witnessed two wooden platforms that had an infestation of termites. Secondly, a lot of people have trouble completing the course or navigating the safety mechanism. Their inferior belay system prevents climbers from passing each other and so people are bottlenecked at one place. Aside from the bad experience of being stuck behind several people unable to cross, it also creates issues where several people are all standing on one unwieldy platform stapled onto a toothpick tree. Lastly, this place is super unorganized, since they are closed in the winter, they only packed the place up to the brim. Kids, adults, team-building office workers all descending on this place on any given summer day. I would seriously avoid this place if you have stayed and read this review to the end. read more

Visited 1st in 2016 and again August 3, 2022. You sign a waiver, and they get you set up with gear (harness & helmet). You then get put into a group for a short intro on how to clip onto the cables, hand formation for the zipline, and to trust your equipment in case you fall. In short, there are 6 main courses and a long zipline (Monarch). There are also areas for children and kids who don't meet the height requirements. Thought there was a big difference btwn the middle and advanced course. Personally found the moving logs to be the worst and height to be an advantage. Might want to leave the jewelry at home. read more

Had a great time here. The kids course was fun, with decent amount of challenge. Some of the slides I wished were more inclined at bottom, as exiting the slide wasn't so easy. The grounds had a lot of caterpillars, some of which hitched a ride home with me. read more

So much fun!! My first time treetop trekking, it's great to do with friends and even as team bonding activities to company outings etc. There are guides and instructors who will teach you and walk through a mini course with you and then off you go! 6 different courses; lots of fun! Make sure you bring your muscles! read more

Way up in the mountains of Stouffville (kidding, not kidding) you'll find a conservation area that has the tree top trekking and ziplining park (there is also a separate area for kiddies). There is a large parking lot (gravel) so not finding space is not an issue. There is a small cabin where you sign in, sign the waiver. There are no lockers (leave valuables at home or in your car) and remember to bring water. There is one vending machine for drinks but when I went every option was sold out so not sure if it's filled up routinely. After signing in your led to the instructors who will provide your gear and then give you a short lesson on the rules and have you practice ziplining before attempting the course. There are 5 courses before the main 'big' zipline. The courses progress from easy to more difficult but honestly it's not that challenging. There are numerous employees on the ground and up in the trees to help you along the way and to watch for rule breakers. You have about a 3 hr time limit to finish the course - finishing really depends on how slow the people ahead of you are as only so many people are allowed on the ladders or on the course at a time. Overall this was a great experience- it really works all your muscles! I really wish they had lockers though bc otherwise you have to chance it leaving stuff in you car, stuffing it in your pockets or carrying your bag through the courses (they have hooks at the bottom of each course but that means you have to run back to collect it before moving forward). read more

Had a fun first experience treetop trekking and ziplining! We made our reservation and signed our waivers online. We arrived a bit late after our booking but we were quickly guided to the orientation area. They taught us how to attach the hook and pulley, then got us to do a trust fall to show us that the courses are safe. We ended up being the last group in line which was good as we did not feel pressured and took our time on each course. We were instructed to go on the monarch zipline first which is the tallest zipline there. Being afraid of heights, I found this zipline wasn't that scary at all (nothing compared to Wonderland!) We finished three courses by the end of the three hour limit, but the guides were kind to let us finish another course. Overall, definitely a great way to spend time around nature. If you have long hair, make sure to tie it up! Otherwise, it will get caught in some of the courses. I'd also strongly recommend wearing clothing with zippable pockets, or you'll end up dropping your belongings like me. Poor phone fell on some logs but it survived the ten feet drop! read more

This place is great for young children and families. The activites offered are endless. I highly suggest the tree top trecking. It's a 9+ old activity that requires you to be at least 55" tall. If you are under that range you can go into the tree walk village which is great because you still climb trees and travel between them using ropes and slides. They do not have a place to purchase food so bring your own!!! read more

QUALITY: overall experience was neat and it was great to be in nature. Surprisingly, this is a physical event and requires a little more upper body strength than 0. If you're a sedentary individual, you will have trouble with a few of these challenges. There are 5-6 stations overall and the last one is a doozy. I found that there was a lot of bunching up on the earlier stations because you must progress in order and if you're trekking when other kiddies are trekking, things are slow-going. If they could have implemented some fashion of letting the more experienced or more fit people go first, that would make the overall time better. SERVICE: College students were running the trekking stations and they were all nice and chill. No comments. Instructions were very clear and it's hard to hurt yourself the way that the obstacle courses have been designed. PRICE: Fun day out in the trees and is considered a novelty thing so it's to be expected to be a little more expensive than not. TIPS: * bring water * enjoy being afraid of heights! * don't wear jeans, it's hard to breathe in them while wearing the harness * bringing gloves would help but not absolutely necessary. * Station 6 is fun and requires upper body strength. * Do the long monarch butterfly zipline in the middle of the hour as there are relatively few people hanging about so the wait time is shorter. If you wait until the end, it's too late! read more

FIRST TIME TREETOP TREKKING! We went during the fall time, when there were no mosquitoes, when it wasn't peak season, when it stopped being too hot, AND....when there was no Groupon.... Ahhhh wells, there's up and downs in life and I suppose if I wanted to go at a time with all these benefits, going when there wasn't a Groupon is worth it! If you are a student, make sure you ask for the student price - in order to get tickets, you have to call in and it's a little challenging to get a hold of something, but they usually reply your calls fairly quickly! They recommend coming a little early - it's to sign off waivers, and to put on the equipment for the zip lining experience. There's about 15 people per time slot to limit the number of people crowding during the zip lining experience. There is a mini 30 minute training with your group where you learn to use your carabiners (make sure at least one of them is hooked on), that you are comfortable climbing back on the rope if you fall, and last but not least, THE MOST EXCITING PART OF ALL, the mini two second zip line (Don't worry it gets better later on). There are a lot of Guides to support you along the way - they will instruct you as to which course you should do in terms of beginner difficulty to higher difficulty later on. As your course of difficulty increases, at the end they have a longer and more fun zip line on it. There is a guide at each zip line, except the very last course, which you will need approval from the Lead Guide (forgot what their actual term was) in order for you to climb it! Last but not least, you will need to go down the Monarch, which is a one time super long zip-lining experience across a field of flowers. You're only allowed to go once, hopefully the lineup isn't too long, we waited about 30 minutes to get on it because a group of people came in all of a sudden. Usually, I don't expect there to be a long waiting time. Overall, I had a blast! I would recommend people to come try it out, but more importantly, to bring gloves - biker gloves would work, and wear long sleeves because the ropes do scratch you! read more

This was quite an adventure! You have to come pretty early to sign waivers and get set up with your gear then they go through a short boot camp to teach you rules and techniques to clamp and unclamp yourself and how to move around in the trees. It actually is quite dangerous if you don't follow the rules, I'm glad that they're strict here. Once you finish training, you walk to a different area where you can choose (out of 5 or 6 courses) to complete and you can do it at your own pace and whichever order you want. I recommend coming in long sleeves and long pants because you'll get rope burned easily while you move through the obstacle courses because the ropes are really rough and it's kind of painful. All in all, this was really fun and I'd do it again! Too bad it's kind of pricey, so I wouldn't do it too often and I'd love for them to add more courses to this place! It's an awesome experience going up really high in the trees and being able to move around up in the trees like ninjas and feel like a pro while doing it. There is a lot of diversity in the types of obstacles on the course and each course has a zipline, then there is a giant zip line at the end. read more

We went on a Saturday afternoon at 12:45pm for our 1:00pm session. They tell you to allow for 30 minutes to pay, sign waivers, and get ready, but you really only need about 10 minutes, including the time it takes to get your harness on. They have a graduated course structure with three or four easy/medium courses and then their most difficult course, for which you need to sign off (on a lined piece of paper, just the date, your name, and signature) to say you know it's difficult and you've done the easy courses. You do an orientation course and then meet the head guide, who assigns you to a course. Because you can meet the guide as soon as you're done the orientation, the different groups of climbers are staggered and despite the staff telling me it had been their busiest day thus far (June 6, 2015), we never really had to wait for other groups to finish or feel pressured by other groups behind us. We were able to enjoy the courses as though we were the only ones on it, so it was a great private experience. The courses are somewhat balance-challenging, but not overly demanding. I wouldn't describe it as very difficult or strenuous, and the fact that it's in the trees is great because the sun isn't beating down on you. After you are done all the courses, you are free to use the remainder of the three hours redoing whichever courses you like. We took a short 10 minute break, two washroom breaks, and paid for the extra "Monarch" zip-line course, and redid two courses. We could have done three, but chose not to because we didn't want to hold up guides right up to closing time. However, we never got the impression that we were rushed or that guides were reluctant to assist. The staff were very friendly. THINGS TO BRING: ----------------------------------------------- - Small backpack. You can carry it with you onto the courses and it won't get too in the way. You don't really have to squeeze through anything. - Water and snacks - Camera/Phone (preferably in your backpack or in a zipped pocket). You can stop to take pictures on the course at the in-between platforms. - Gloves. Any gloves will do. It protects your hands from the cables and ropes. The $2 gloves they sell there are regular gardening gloves. TIPS: ----------------------------------------------- - Do NOT pay for the extra "Monarch" zip-line course. It lasts about 10 seconds, there isn't a view, and it isn't very exciting. Even at the discounted $5 rate (I think you have to pay more if you only do Monarch and none of the other courses), I just don't feel like it's much of an experience. - Take your time. You will have the urge to beast through the course and you might finish faster than you anticipated, which is not as fulfilling as you'd think it be. Enjoy the courses at a leisurely pace. - If you don't feel like taking your time, go ahead and challenge the 6-minute-something guide record on the last, most difficult course, Barn Owl. read more

Nestled in the woods near Stouffville, you'll find a conservation area, and within that conservation area, you'll find an amazing park, and within that amazing park - you'll find crazy mammals hanging and swinging from trees. No this isn't the planet of the apes (well it sort of is but that's beside the point), this is Treetop trekking and it's jam packed with adventure and trill seeking locals looking to get in touch with their extreme side. From the moment of check-in you're made aware that your safety and security are a top priority with the staff at TTT. Following registration, you're suited up by an expert and given a safety talk. Following the safety chat, patrons are taken through what I will call trekking 101. A 20-30 minute hands on session on how to effectively, quickly and safely, make use of the ropes courses and zip lining. But don't worry the course is done on a small scale version of a typical course and you easily learn how to move from ladders, to ropes, to walking and transfers, all from only 3 feet off the ground! I had the pleasure of taking the Zip Line for a ride and let me tell you, that is all thrill! Certainly not for the faint of heart. In addition, there were varying levels of rope course difficulty, as well as a much easier course for kids (think of walking between tree-houses - just safely attached to cross ropes. One of the best parts about this experience is that you climb rain or shine. The tree canopy above, protects you against all forms of weather. Looking forward to my next visit to TTT, maybe next time I'll try their Brampton location which apparently is set up to have you zip line over Heart lake! read more

Went here with a group of friends in the summer. The preparation for the courses was very clear and quick. Staff were friendly and made sure that everyone understand how to work their harnesses to ensure safety. Course itself was GREAT! I'm a bit scared of heights myself, but I pushed through 4 courses! Definitely a great option for someone looking for fun adventure in nature!! read more

So on a cold Easter Sunday, I decided to visit the Maple Syrup Festival at Bruce's Mill in Stouffville. I was considering ziplining and I already looked up all the information, particularly the cost to do it, and it was affordable, so I would definitely do it if I had time. After my self-guided walking tour of the grounds, I walked into the little house at the end to see the modern method of making maple syrup and when that was done, it's the information desk of Treetop Trekking, with a special during Maple Syrup Festival no less! I knew I had to do it now. The girl at the desk (forgot her name) was lovely, extremely friendly and helpful, she signed me up for the next zipline time and gave me more information about making it a group activity as I am considering it for my birthday. She also gave me waiver forms for me to fill out and offered to watch my bag when I'd be going on my zipline. I returned at the time she told me to, where I met my zipline guide Matt who helped me put on my harness. He was friendly and patient, especially while we had our mandatory induction on how the ziplining would go, he even took a selfie with me before I jumped off the platform. There was a brief moment when I said I was ready, but I really wasn't, but Matt talked me out of self-doubt. Definitely book ahead, because you wouldn't have to pay the park entrance fee if you do. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here and really look forward to coming here again in the near future. read more

I did the indoors birthday party package for treewalk Village for my daughter.. She turned 3 years old. This package includes 3 hrs of use of the party room, and 2 hrs play time in Treewalk Village. 12 participants are included in the birthday package, but keep in mind that adults count as a participant. What was great though, was that a participant is only considered someone who goes into treewalk village. You don't have to count the guests that just come and hang out in the party room. Try to have your numbers ready for the staff a head of time though. In nice weather, I can see it will easily get busy, and they want to make sure they can accommodate your party. Try to get your guests to fill out the waivers before coming to the party. It just saves time, and the kids could get to playing right away. Speaking of playing right away. Your 2 hrs of treewalk village start right at your booking time. For example, 1:30pm was our booked start time (I thought for the partyroom), but it was also the start time for our treewalk village time. I spent almost the first half hour gathering waivers from my guests to go get their wrist bands. so my daughter and her guests kind of had less than 2 hrs of play time. That being said, the staff are laid back and friendly. The party room was a nice size. Lots of tables and chairs. Treewalk Village is a pretty great idea especially for the little ones. Even some of the older kids who were around 8-9 yrs old. The kids who are still afraid of heights have tunnels and low to the group bridges to play only. There even a mini rock climbing wall. My daughter and her friends all enjoyed this place very much. read more

I loved my experience at Treetop Trekking. The half an hour became 5 minutes to check in, sign the waiver, and get harnessed as we had to take a detour. I did the 2 for $100 deal - available for July and August. I also paid for the Monarch which was not necessarily worth $5 for ONE ride. The orientation was informative and the guide explained the steps easily and was able to correct any mistakes during the 'practice-orientation' of where you had to go through a SMALL 3 minute course of a game & zip-lining. The guides were very easy going and knowledgeable about their positions. There were only 1 thing I did not like about this course. 1. They should stagger on who is faster/slower and allow the faster(s) go to first - as the whole course is doable in maybe 2 hours - giving you an extra hour to go over any courses you'd like. HOWEVER, there was an individual in front of us who was clearly not comfortable (as her rotten friends decided to go first and left her) but was determined to finish the course. We took the whole 3 hours to finish the easy and intermediate courses - and thankfully a guide allowed us to do the advanced one as well. Bring insect repellent!!! Getting bit is not a question but a fact. I'll be trying their other courses in the future. read more

Chose Treetop Trekking Stouffville as part of a day of activities with a few friends. I've been treetrop trekking once further north and enjoyed it quite immensely and was very excited this location is much closer to home. Price for the adult aerial course is $67/pp after tax which allows you to do (up to) 5 courses in a 3 hour span. Orientation will take a good 30 mins or so. Regarding the courses itself - it does get progressively harder but introducing swinging logs and net climbing, but the height of the course feels about the same. I've been to a previous tree trekking establishment and we were more than double the height from the ground. That being said, a tree is a tree and I enjoy nature as it is. We went though 4 of the 5 courses in our time. This is where I have an issue. When we've finished our fourth course, we headed towards the fifth and hardest course. At this time, one of the staff members ushered us to Monarch zip which is quite some way away from the main courses. It's a bigger, one-time zip line. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but when we returned to the main area we were told we will not have time to finish the last course. We are informed it takes 30 minutes to finish the course and we were 31 minutes away. (Though according to her watch we were 25 minutes away) My issue is that: 1) We were never presented with the option of Monarch Zip vs #5 course. Had we been give a chance, we would have chosen the course. 2) At a facility like this, I'm genuinely surprised that they didn't let us finish because we were 5 minutes off (according to her watch and not any of ours). I understood if we had 10 minutes to spare for a 30 minutes course, but this is truly inconsiderate on their part. 3) The aforementioned orientation is done in a group of 20 people. Depending on when you finish the orientation (small size course), you can start on the courses earlier than others. As we were one of the last ones to run through the orientation, we were at least a good 5-10 mins behind the people in front of us. I understand this cannot be controlled, but should be a consideration. I suspect their staff probably closed it for lunch/break time, but essentially we left early because there's no point in doing the previous courses again. In the end, I choose to enjoy my time here with what we were given, but we all left feeling more than a bit ripped off. If I had a choice again, I would drive the extra distance to a further park. read more

The Tree Walk Village - for kids and big kids between 3 and 17 according to the prebooking process - is a lot of fun. Just be prepared to sign multiple waivers including that they have no obligation to "take reasonable steps of safeguarding or to protect" your kids. What does this imply about upkeep and equipment safety? And if you want to walk around under the play equipment to look after your kids then look forward to paying an additional nine bucks per adult. And bring food if you want to eat there; the General Store is an empty building. If you can get past all this, you'll have a good time; my kids (5 and 8 years old) liked it. read more

Treetop Trekking - Ziplining Near Me - Whitchurch-Stouffville, Ontario

Fantastic crew. I had such a fun date with my friends here. I would go again for sure. read more

I came here with a group of students and the make you go through a test to make sure that you can get up if you lose your footing before you get on the actual courses. The further you go the harder the courses get. I would recommend bringing glove because the clips kinda pinch your hands. I was a great experience because its a good way to get over your fear of heights and exercise at the same time. I had a great time and would go again. I would recommend going with a group of people because it tends to be cheaper than going alone. read more

It was my first time tree top trekking and I had a blast! I came here with a group of 15. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The course was challenging, after each zipline, you are taken to bigger heights. You have to complete everything in order to do the big zipline at the end of the course. I recommend bringing a pair of gloves, I brought a little strap on for my phone that goes around your arm, and bring a cooler with drinks to keep in your trunk! Because at the end of the course you will definitely need a drink and who wants to pay for one when you can bring one. Although, throughout the course they do have water stations. I like that you can complete this course at your own pace. read more

The tree top village is perfect for preschoolers. Shaded, safe and fun. My 4 and 5 year olds loved it and I could relax at shady picnic table with great view of them playing. Only recommendation would be to have an employee circulating inside to make sure kids especially older ones are following rules. read more

Staff were very helpful at getting our reservation all sorted out, as we got there and the package wasn't waiting for us (waivers, etc.). Staff were quite helpful and friendly, helping us out with all the equipment. The group was large, a few reservation groups all together so to go through the training course took quite a while. But once we were done we were ready to get tree-walking. My group did all the courses including the monarch zip line (but I opted to sit out the last 2 courses). I like that visitors can walk around and look up to see what the courses are like. Or, like me, I was able to take a ton of pics of my friends going through the courses. It was a lot of fun and a great day. However, it was a bit disorganized in the morning. Perhaps limiting group sizes to 20 might help things run a bit smoother and quicker. read more

Went with my boyfriend yesterday- it was SO MUCH FUN!! Scary at times because of the shakiness but very exciting. The challenge is to finish all the courses: I found that the faster you try to do them the funner they were! There are zip lines at the end of every course (total 5 courses) that get longer each course. Find a way to bring your phone to take photos! Wear something with a zipper pocket. 1 star off because there was no direction as to where to go next when we were finished a course. They should be numbered as well as named. We had to keep looking around for staff to ask which one is next in difficulty. What sucks is that if you are stuck behind someone who is slow or scared, you have to wait for them to keep going so sometimes there was crowding.. At times people would have to wait on a shaking log or balancing on a cable wire. Which is not ideal if you're trying to finish all the courses and want to move on. Another thing is that not all the staff were friendly. A girl who was the guide at the peewee zip line was obviously very bored and in a bad mood... Didn't enjoy my first zip line experience with her attitude. The guide who was posted at the bottom to direct people was just lounging back in his lawn chair all day looking very bored. All the other staff were very friendly. read more
