The guide was updated: 2022-07-07

Tahoe City Treetop Adventure Park is considered by some to be "the coolest thing" they've ever done. The Adventure, vaguely reminiscent of the Endor scenes from "Star Wars," is a series of courses linked platform to platform atop the trees via bridges and zip lines. There are many types of courses for children of age 5 and above and regardless of athleticism.
