The Holden Arboretum has finalized plans to build the Judith and Maynard H. Murch IV Canopy Walk, offering guests an amazing views of forests and the residents inhabiting them.
The Canopy Walk will be a 500′ long elevated walkway, built 65′ above the valley, that will include four suspension bridges. Additionally, an emergent tower that reaches 120′ from the ground will built nearby, all located about one-half mile from the Warren H. Corning Visitor Center.
“Holden’s Canopy Walk and Emergent Tower will be unique among such features at public gardens nationwide by providing a very up-close opportunity to engage with plants and animals high in the forest canopy” said CEO and President, Clem Hamilton “and it will be great fun too.”
Holden hopes to begin construction by the end of summer 2014 with an opening sometime in spring 2015.
