Tree Canopy Walk

People walk along a medal and wood boardwalk in the treetops in fall.

Out on a Limb: A Tree Canopy Walk

Generously supported by the Jane and Leonard Korman Family Foundation

Get a bird’s-eye view of the forest from 50 feet up, perched on the Tree Canopy Walk high above ground level. Or scamper down onto the Squirrel Scramble, a huge hammock-like net where you can look down to the ground far below through the rope netting. Enter the Bird’s Nest and sit on giant robin eggs, just waiting to hatch. It’s all part of Morris Arboretum & Garden’s Out on a Limb exhibit, connecting us to the natural world, and themed to teach us that we need trees and trees need us.

Designed by Metcalfe Architecture & Design, the exhibit is a fully accessible, fascinating learning experience for both children and adults.

  • A group of people look over the ledge of a treetop bridge.
  • Families climbing through an elevated hammock-like net in the trees.
  • A looping wood archway leading to a elevated canopy walk.
  • A family sitting on oversized blue eggs on an oversized nest.
