From the Vancouver Sun in Canada:A thrilling $1.5-million tree-top walkway through the lush rainforest canopy of majestic conifers at the University of B.C. Botanical Garden in Vancouver opens for business next month.
The high-tech prefabricated aluminum walkway will zigzag 308 metres between trees and offer sensational views.
It has been designed to give everyone, including those in wheelchairs, the chance to see what life is like 20 metres above the ground in the forest's hidden canopy.
Situated in the David C. Lam Asian Garden section as part of Walk in the Woods Trail, the prefabricated walkway will be connected to nine giant conifers, all sturdy towering grand firs along with a couple of Douglas firs.
A ramp will lead people up to the first platform from where they will be able to walk in close proximity to the huge trees and get close-up views of bug and bird life high in the tree tops.
