In West Virginia, there are plenty of places to explore at ground level, the trees rising above you. But there are not many where the treetops themselves flank your path. This adventure park has three.

Adventures on the Gorge is a adventure park in Lansing that offers many adventures, one of which is the Treetops Canopy Tour.

If you would prefer an adventure that eschews the sky bridges, hikes and the rappel in favor of just ziplines, then the Gravity Zip Lines tour is for you. This one offers nothing but straight ziplining over a 1.5 mile course comprised of six separate lines, the largest of which sends you rocketing over the trees at 60 to 65 miles per hour. The minimum age for this one is 12.

As you make your way across this aerial path, the platforms and obstacles rise in both height and difficulty as they become more unstable, allowing you to test your strength and agility along the way. There will be park staff that will serve as lifeguards to help you if you get stuck or simply offer guidance.
