Why Climb Trees with Us?
Climb a tree with us and it brings all walks of life, all ages into close contact with nature and offers them an experience unlike any other climbing activity.
​
Stimulate the senses of vision, of smell, touch, hearing and vestibular and you'll find yourself immersed in nature in one of the most exhilarating ways
The benefits of tree climbing are tenfold. The unique system of climbing a tall tree with ropes, prusik knots and harnesses, of getting off the ground and up high under your own steam, provides climbers of all ages with challenges whilst having fun, a lot of fun.
​
Climbing trees brings climbers closer with nature and for some find unforgettable moments of calm.
​
Children naturally thrive at this activity because they are low in body weight, fearless, and have an unlimited abundance of energy.
And for adults its a chance of reconnecting with a forgotten pastime and that isn’t the only benefit of climbing trees. Studies have shown that being among nature, specifically trees, can improve emotional well-being, and significantly improve physiological and psychological states.

The Early Inspiration
Canopy Tree Climbing was founded in 1979, when at the tender age of 4 we moved from London to the New Forest, whereupon we experienced tree climbing for the first time and the journey of Canopy Tree Climbing inadvertently began!
We are an experienced climbing team with over 8 years of recreational tree climbing at festivals and schools across the UK.
