What you get

    About this experience

    Come experience the only old-growth tree climbing activity in the State of Washington and create some unforgettable memories. This is your chance to do something not even .1% of the population has done, but now you can. In small-groups climb together on 1-4 trees between 100 and 200 feet high, depending on your athletic level. Some of the trees are even rare old-growth trees. See the unique perspective above the canopy and feel what it's like to be eye level with an eagle as you climb/swing around like a monkey through the open air and catch branches, while safely harnessed by rope. Climb your way up some of the tallest trees in the world to amazing views of the upper canopy, mountains, and ocean. Connect to nature like you have never done before, beyond the trail. During this activity you will explore the special ecology of old-growth trees and its importance in our environment and so much more. Groups larger than 6 people, please contact us directly.

    Could have stayed up there all night

    We did the Sunset Canopy Climb. Learning the techniques and equipment on the "practice" tree was a great way to build confidence, though if there is a larger group of people it takes some time to get through everyone. The guides are very friendly and encouraging as you find yourself amidst unbelievable heights. Be sure to plan for the ferry schedule in advance. Thanks again to Leo and Brendan!

    Response from the operator: Thanks again so much for coming out to climb with us! Hope we created some unforgettable memories for you all and that you come back to climb with us again at our location down In Oregon next time! All the best,

    Canopy Climb at Deception Pass - a Must Do!

    Sunset or no sunset, this is a must for anyone's bucket list! What a thrill! You can do this even if you've never climbed a tree before! Equipment is new, guides are very friendly and highly experienced. They are also very patient! In our case, the guide hung close by one of our group and encouraged them in such a wonderful manner that the person is still talking about the great "customer service" they got on our climb a couple of weeks ago! I'd do it again when we have guests visiting, etc.

    Response from the operator: Thanks for the review! We always give it our all to make sure everyone can experience this to the fullest. We appreciate that you enjoyed our service so much. We look forward to climbing with you again when you have visitors. Tree Hugs-

    Tree Top gaze- takes your breath away!

    Leo provides an unforgettable Old Growth tree climbing experience that is educational, recreational and life changing. If you ever find yourself in Washington State, this unique exposure that a tiny fraction of the population gets to experience, is a must do. The smells, the views, the physical and mental exhilaration will be forever embedded in your soul. These 350-750 year old gentle giants have stood in their glory all these years enabling us to still have the opportunity to scale and admire. Thank you Leo for this breathtaking experience!

    Response from the operator: Thanks Krista, the writing in your review flows and describes our experience as if it came from an author of famous literature (or are you writer?). We appreciate your kind words very much. All the best to you and Peter.

    Wonderful experience on beautiful trees!

    My sister in laws and I decided to do this for a 50th bday celebration. This was the most amazing, unique, beautiful way to celebrate starting our 5th decade! Leo was very patient with us and did a fantastic job helping us through our climb. We felt very comfortable going at our own pace and always felt secure and safe in the equipment. The views were awe inspiring and there is no describing the feeling of sitting on a tree branch 200 feet up in the air! The tree itself is an amazing giant- and I appreciate the fact that every care is taken to preserve the tree and not stress it. I highly recommend doing a tree climb! It is an adventure few have taken, but once you have done it, you will never forget it!

    Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Juan Islands.

    How much does Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island cost?

    +

    Prices start at $299 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Juan Islands usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Juan Islands is not rushed.

    Is Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Juan Islands, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Juan Islands can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Juan Islands and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sunset Canopy Climb on Lopez Island start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Juan Islands within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in San Juan Islands?

    +

    The San Juan Islands are Washington's whale watching centre: orca and humpback boats, kayak tours through the channels, seaplane trips and island-hopping day tours from Seattle. On Outty we rank every San Juan Islands experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whale Watching from Friday Harbor, Chuckanut Bay Distillery Tour with 2 Mini Cocktails and Gift Glass, Full Day San Juan Island Kayaking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit San Juan Islands?

    +

    May to September, with peak whale sightings in July and August. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in San Juan Islands?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
