Easy the whole way. Get on, and the rest of the tree doesn't ask much more.

Not a safety inspection. Check the tree yourself before you trust it.

What a fun tree grown so diagonally! Fun for everyone :D So many paths through it, fun for beginners and if you're a bit more daring you can get quite high up into the canopy!
