The Awesome Treetop Adventure In North Carolina Everyone Will Love
When one thinks ‘treetop adventure,’ usually the first things that come to mind are ziplines, ladders suspended from tall oaks, daring crossways between trees, and a usual sense of thrill and adventure. While many treetop adventures are geared towards the more daring, the Museum of Life + Science in Durham has taken a family-friendly angle that combines the nostalgia of treehouses with accessibility for all ages.

"Play in naturalized, outdoor environments can foster deeper social, physical, and emotional developments in children (and adults!). The dynamic mix of full-body movement, imaginative play and opportunities to notice or observe, provides endless opportunities to exercise our mental and physical capabilities."
It's safe to say we all remember the grand adventures and stories we'd imagine while playing with friends in the woods or even retreating to a treehouse to regroup and reconvene in the politics of this imagined world. The possibilities are endless here when it comes to letting little ones (and adults) run wild with their imagination, while instilling a sense of adventure and learning.
Incase you’re wondering what it’d be like to play in Hideaway Woods, this video posted by the Museum of Life + Science is a great inside look.
It seems you’re never TOO old to let your imagination take hold, and this is the perfect place to do so! I can only imagine the stories and creativity it will instill in little ones, and rekindle in adults.
