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

We have zip-lined in Costa Rica and Vancouver Island and this ranked at the same level as those experiences.  The "test run" and set-up provides the confidence that people are comfortable using the equipment and that safety is a priority.  Our two guides, Sadie and Jenn were phenomenal. They were professional, helpful, full of fun facts about Vermont and the surrounding forest. I would highly recommend this activity to others looking for some adventure. read less

They had a blast and loved every minute of their “adventure”. It’s self-guided, so they teach you how to properly clip on and off of the various lines. It was a little intimidating at first, but it became obvious after the first obstacle that there really isn’t a way to get hurt unless you’re trying to.  The self guided piece really set this experience apart from others we’ve done.



Staff was super friendly and great with the kids. Can’t recommend highly enough. Worth the money! read less

Our littlest one, almost four years old, needed a lot of help and Marley was able to help us out throughout the course.  Our oldest grandson who is 7 years old and has participated in another course in his hometown, just needed the school refresher and was able to connect and disconnect to all the obstacles on his own. There was a lot of variety with the obstacles and plenty of ziplines.  They are both looking forward to getting bigger and qualifying to go on the BIG zipline tour in a few years!  Our older grandchildren did the ArborTrek zipline and thought it was an amazing experience!! What a picture perfect place to spend the afternoon! read less

Staff is personable and interact well with the public. Very helpful and accommodating as we had to change times due to travel time.
