Everyone from the guest services rep that greeted us to our two amazing guides were excellent. Isaiah & Ben kept us all entertained with their fun and informative antics. We never once felt like we weren’t safe. They took great care of all of us. Thank you for a core memory that our family will share for years to come. read less

The first few are easy and lets you get comfortable with breaking but #7 and #8 are pretty long and really beautiful. I'd say best time to go is between the last week of Sept and the first two weeks of Oct for best fall foliage views. I don't know if they still do corny tree jokes in the winter.



Shout out to James and McGee! read less

Our two guides were Sadie and James; they were beyond amazing. They were fun, knowledgeable, skilled, patient, sensitive to our concerns, and very friendly. We felt incredibly safe and confident with them. Not only did they have great stories to educate us about the Green Mountains, we were also inspired to return again for more such adventures. We highly recommend this adventure! read less

Our guides James and Sean were both knowledgeable about their craft. Clearly everyone’s safety was their priority, but still had plenty of room for a good time.   The Zip-lining was a good adventure through the forest in the area, there are 8 crossings in all of varying lengths.

We had a little practice and tutorial on low ground before setting out.

The front office people were also friendly and efficient.  We went out at 9am, a good time for the warmer weather that day.

I would do it again! read less

Zoe and Zoe (McGee) were great your leaders and we enjoyed every second of it. The photos they took were just okay so not worth the cost but I just brought my phone along, secured in my tight, mid-thigh side pocket and got pictures myself. Anything in pockets closer to your side would definitely fall out. read less

Our guides were Ben and McGee - great young people who seemed to be interested in their job and interested in the guests, even though they must do this same trip three times a day for months at a time. They take safety seriously, are funny and engaging and made everyone feel included as part of the group. The zip-lining itself is first-rate, with seven or eight lines and most of them are really good. A couple are quite fast. Beautiful day, great guides. Well worth the money. read less

The courses were really good. The suspended bridges and rappelling were unexpected and fun. Unfortunately, they only took about 10 pictures and wanted close to $40 for them, so we did not purchase the package. read less

There were 4 of us ranging from 13 years old to grandparents. Our guides, Shawn and Isaiah were very knowledgeable and had great senses of humor. We learned a lot on the trip and they kept things interesting and fun. Even my sister-in-law who had never tried zip-lining and was pretty nervous calmed down quickly and really enjoyed it. We highly recommend ArborTrek. If you are in or around the area - this is well worth the trip. read less

Hannah helped us at the beginning putting on our harnesses and teaching us how to use the equipment and was awesome too! They both made the experience fun and enjoyable for the whole crew! Jessica who was working the front desk was super nice and very helpful. I talked to Jesse on the phone before coming and he was great too! Overall, an amazing staff and friendly environment...needless to say, we will definitely be back for more fun in the future 🙂 read less

We did the treetop obstacle course, which definitely challenged “mom and dad” physically and mentally. The kids (teens) had no fear and practically ran through all of the difficulty levels (easy to extreme).  If you have a fear of heights, this course will challenge you.  You can sort of choose which direction to go to a certain point.  Physically, if you’re in shape, then no need to worry. If not in shape, it will be hard, but you will be surprised at how well you did.  The guides were AMAZING!  They were extremely nice, helpful, and understanding.  We informed the guides about one of the kids with a disability and they knew, at least for my child’s disability, what (not) to do when my child started to have an episode.  Kudos to the team for knowing how to handle certain situations!  We had a great time and would highly recommend this place! read less
