High up among the tree tops, you can get a new perspective on life. Tree top walks and canopy walkways are fun for the whole family.

Walkways through trees are often made in a combination of wood and steel. These are two natural materials that complement each other well. Steel offers a number of important advantages for this type of application: it is light and safe, it allows large spans and therefore few obstructing columns. It is mechanically strong, and when galvanised or weathering steel is chosen, it offers excellent protection against corrosion without the need for costly maintenance.

In the last ten – fifteen years, treetop walks have sprung up like mushrooms, so it was difficult to make a selection.
