On my wish list of places to visit

Arbraska Treetop Trekking offers the canopy trail closest to Toronto, in the Horseshoe Resort near Barrie. What attracts me about this adventure is the choice of different treetop circuits adapted for different age groups. Here, kids as young as 5 years old can enjoy the experience. They don't call them canopy trails; here, they’re aerial courses. They include Tarzan ropes, zip lines, barrels, swinging logs, ladders and other challenges.
