Tree climbing is an experience where you can climb a tree using a special rope, saddle (safety belt), and safety protective gear, and experience a sense of unity with trees, forests, and nature. activity. You can make new discoveries by looking at the forest from a different perspective, "from the top of the tree", and by experiencing the nature of the top of the tree using your five senses. Spend time climbing the same tree with family and friends, camping in a tree using a tree boat (a type of hammock), birdwatching and observing nature, and the possibilities are endless. From children to adults, and even challengers (we call people with disabilities who work hard every day as challengers), in the process of looking up at a tree and setting their own goals and climbing it with their own strength, courage and confidence grow. As you come, you will get a feeling of satisfaction that you have never tasted before. Hands-on activities are an endless challenge to yourself and are never meant to compete with others, so the key is to enjoy them at your own pace. Come on, let's climb a tree together! You're not the only one playing a role in tree climbing, making friends with trees and developing a sense of respect for nature. Trees, forests, all natural environments play a leading role. I enter the forest with the feeling of "Please play with me today" to the tree that will experience tree climbing. When you climb a tree and become friends with it, and when you come down from the top of the tree, you will develop a "heart" that values ​​nature. History of tree climbing Today, in America, the birthplace of tree climbing, tree climbing is a technique developed by American arborists to manage trees and preserve genetic resources. Arborists have a global organization called ISA (International Society of Arboriculture). Originally, tree climbing was a technique reserved for some arborists, but in 1983, Peter Jenkins established Tree Climbers International (TCI) in Atlanta, Georgia so that the general public could enjoy it as a recreational activity. An organization was established and spread. Starting with the United States, TCI has expanded its network to Canada, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Japan.
