Karkloof Canopy Tour’s tour begins with a detailed safety briefing followed by a 'kitting up' session where full body harness, pulleys and climbing equipment is put on and safety is checked. A short scenic drive to the top of the Karkloof valley and it is time to swing around.
From the start, on the launch platform, a new world unfolds as one gently glides on a steel cable to the first platform. All groups are escorted through the forest canopy by a lead guide and a follow guide to ensure your safety as you slide from tree to tree.
The platforms are built high up in the forest canopy and all offer different views of the surrounding forest, a magnificent 20m waterfall, clear sparkling forest stream and across the expansive Karkloof valley far below.
Spend a couple of minutes relaxing on the platforms while your guides enthusiastically explain the ecology of the forest - pointing out different trees and the magnificent giant ferns below.
The Karkloof Canopy Tour consists of seven platforms and eight 'foefie' slides, the longest of which is over 170m!
A tour lasts approximately three hours, is suitable for any age from seven upwards and includes a delicious Midlands meal served once your group is safely back on ground
