Redwood Adventures Tours
Redwood Canopy Tours
Come learn about the redwood forest and experience it from a new perspective.
Join North Coast Adventure Centers for a Canopy Tour 70-120 feet up in the redwoods of Arcata's Redwood Park. You will start on the ground learning terms and techniques needed to safely maneuver through the canopy. After the training is completed the next challenge will be to ascend up into the redwoods and ride a series of ziplines through the canopy. Our trained guides will help you step out of your comfort zone and experience the beauty of the redwood canopy. Climbing, zipping, and rappelling through the trees will help you appreciate their power and beauty.
