Adventurers will then climb up to a treetop platform to begin their journey through rope spider webs,  zip lines, log waves and more. After climbing, adventurers return to the base area by chairlift. Treetop  Adventure guests begin their tour when they load the chairlift (launch time) every half hour from  9:00am-1:00pm.
