Morris Arboretum, Out on a Limb

Philadelphia, PA, United States

STATUS
Built
YEAR
2009
The centerpiece of a campus-wide exhibition at Morris Arboretum is a 450 foot-long, fully accessible tree canopy walk. It is one of few tree canopy walks in North America. The design balances perceived danger, actual safety, sustainable materials, and real trees to create a playful and immersive learning experience about the forest.
