Very fun and challenging My wife and and good friend of mine decided to try Timbertop adventures. My wife discovered it a while back, and we thought that it would be fun to try. All three of us were quite familiar with TreeGo, as we had been there several times, so we had an idea what was in store for us. We also watched a couple of YouTube videos and looked at pictures and we were hooked.

We booked the "Go Wild" package because we wanted to try as much as we can.

My wife discovered it a while back, and we thought that it would be fun to try. All three of us were quite familiar with TreeGo, as we had been there several times, so we had an idea what was in store for us. We also watched a couple of YouTube videos and looked at pictures and we were hooked.

We booked the "Go Wild" package because we wanted to try as much as we can. Going by previous reviews, many people either quit after the blue+ or the black level. We wanted to be able to try as much as we can. We are all in pretty good shape, but for me especially, my upper body strength could use some more work (I'm an avid runner and cyclist, so that part of my body does not get enough training, I'm sad to admit).

We arrived early as requested at 9:30am (our booking was from 10am-1:30pm). We had booked on line and signed out waivers, so that part was done. Once we checked off when we needed to bring with us, we got fitted with our harnesses. The harnesses are top notch. If anyone reading this has been to TreeGo you will know that the carbiners are both unlocked and it's very easy to unlatch both from the steel cables at the same time. This isn't a problem for mature people, who don't have a death wish, but as any parent looking up at their kids know, you can't always see what their kids are doing. The locking/unlocking mechanism for these carabiners take a little bit of getting used to when you come to an obstacle or a ladder, but there's no way that you can forget to clip in at least one (I've seen people forget to use one at TreeGo). The training is pretty similar to TreeGo in the sense that you learn how the carabiners and the zipline device or also called the 'elephant' work. I was so glad that they provided helmets and that we brought gloves because you need the gloves for the steel cables and I can't tell you how many times I smacked my head going up a ladder, hitting a steel wire etc.

Once the training was completed, we were free to start anywhere we wished. This being our first time, we decided to start with the green beginner courses and work our way up. The obstacles: some are similar to TreeGo, and some are of Timbertop's evil design (I mean that in a good way). I won't get into details here, but there are some obstacles which are very difficult that even someone with a good level of upper body strength will find very challenging. I was only able to complete the Blue+ course before my arms felt like they were going to fall off. My friend managed to go a bit further, completing the black course before he had to call it quits. We still had some time left, so we could go back to the easier courses again and re-try them is we wished. My wife went back and redid one of the easier courses and beat her first time.

Once we were all completed and exhausted, we went back to return our gear. We had great chats with the staff both at the office as well as on the course. The course staff were always nearby to offer help and tips if needed. I'm sure that we will return again next year.

I would definitely recommend TimberTop adventures to anyone who wants to challenge themselves both physically and mentally. read less

Fun and challenging! Great way to spend a weekend. A must for thrill seekers. Lots of exciting and challenging courses to try, we’ll be back!

Awesome!! To quote the non athletic difficult to please 11 year old boy...”Most fun I’ve ever had!”

My perspective, reluctantly did this with him. It was awesome. Conquered my fear of heights for a day. Had a lot of fun.

Staff were respectfully attentive, helpful, always willing to help and answer questions/recommendations.

Must do with tweens, even have courses for little ones. Bring gloves but they will supply if you forget, and solid shoes.

A great way to spend an afternoon with kids! I had heard a little bit about TimberTop Adventures since it first opened but didn't realize until very recently that it had a course designed especially for the 5-7 year old age range.
My husband and I took our two girls to do the Cat Whiskers courses yesterday, and we all had a terrific time! Both of my girls (who are 5 and 6 years old) wanted to do more!
I was very impressed by the staff we met and interacted wtih - most of whom are young adults/teenagers. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, extremely helpful, and engaging (especially with my children).... read moreI had heard a little bit about TimberTop Adventures since it first opened but didn't realize until very recently that it had a course designed especially for the 5-7 year old age range.

The courses were a perfect balance of challenge and fun and it experience helped them to build confidence in their own abilities!
The courses are well maintained and the scenery is beautiful. We will consider buying season passes next spring! read less

Loved the challenge of climbing, swinging, balancing, zip lining, and of course the flying squirrel! Can’t wait to go back.

So much fun The location is beautiful and the staff are great. I have a fear of heights and wanted to challenge myself. I felt safe the entire time and when I got stuck half way through the first obstacle course, the staff member that helped me was friendly, patient and encouraged me to keep trying. Because of this, I was able to finish the course and do another one. I definitely want to go back and try the more difficult courses next time!

The best adventure in Saint John! This place is absolutely amazing! Try to reserve a space in the morning. Trust me, you will want to spend the whole day after. The staff couldn't be any friendlier. The trainer and co-owner LeRoy is such a great guy! The park really makes you feel very secure. We were never afraid of falling. The harnesses and cables are top notch. We had a great time jumping from tree to tree. But zip lining is only 30% of the fun. You have to try crossing over a 1 cm wire 10 m above the floor with obstacles in the middle!... read moreThis place is absolutely amazing! Try to reserve a space in the morning.

You can leave your bags by the beginning of the course and pick them up after. They will be safe. It will be very hard to visit all courses in 1 visit. This is definitely a park you will want to visit multiple times read less

Fun, challenging and safe! Timbertop is amazing! The staff is professional and courteous. It is an excellent value for the money. Safety is ensured with a system that forces you to always have one carabiner clipped. With children, this is especially important, at similar operations we’ve seen kids holding both carabiners unclipped – very scary. Timbertop’s system gave us peace of mind. If you’ve seen these types of courses before you might think it’s just for kids. Let me assure you this is challenging for all ages and fitness levels. Just like a ski hill they run from easy to hard: yellow, green, blue,... read moreTimbertop is amazing! The staff is professional and courteous. It is an excellent value for the money.

If you’ve seen these types of courses before you might think it’s just for kids. Let me assure you this is challenging for all ages and fitness levels. Just like a ski hill they run from easy to hard: yellow, green, blue, black diamond and double black diamond. I’m a middle-aged guy who is in reasonable shape: the greens and blues were challenging, the single black had me contemplating packing it in and I didn’t have the energy to tackle the double black! If you do get stuck or need to turn around (which happened in our group) the staff is there to help you out. The other nice thing is the location is right next to a beach, I didn’t have a change of clothes otherwise I would have been jumping in the river to cool off! My family and I are well traveled, we gave Timbertop 10/10. read less

A fun & very safe challenge! You won't be sorry! My husband & I frequented TimberTop Adentures for the first time on July 19th, 2020. It will NOT be our last! The experience from beginning to end was 5 star in every way. Knowledgeable, patient & accommodating staff. Challenging yet fun with varying degrees of easy-difficulty obstacles/zip lines. We felt 100% confident & safe. I can't stress Timbertop Adventures as a "must-do" as a family, a couple or even on your own. For the active seniors, my husband & I are 62 & 61 & we literally can not wait to go back!
