Some things to consider during your visit:

1) Dress appropriately for the activity and the weather. The experience takes place entirely outdoors and you will be walking through partially leveled trails (think hiking) so wear appropriate footwear. The experience takes place, rain or shine, so if rain is in the forecast, also be sure to bring rain jackets.

2) When booking your tickets, be absolutely certain that you will be attending on that date and time. Reservations cannot be changed nor refunded. 

3) The trail involves crossing a suspended bridge. Though the bridge is safe and secure, this is something to keep in mind for those of you who may have some apprehension when it comes to heights. 

4) For those needing washroom breaks, there are washrooms available before the trail begins, as well as halfway through the experience.
