You'll think about your feet getting on, and again once or twice on the way up.

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

Whoa! At first sight, this just looks like some kind of poplar, but man, it's really fun to go up! Way up at the top, you can actually get to the treetop. There you have a really nice chair to sit on where you can overlook the industrial Tata terrain on one side and all the treetops on the other side. Very special feeling! And I really had to learn to trust the tree with my body because the wind was starting to blow. It was quite scary to be blown all over the place, but yeah, learning to surrender!! There are a couple of other nice seats to sit on. I would really recommend going here. And there are even a couple of transferable parts that may or may not end up in fun technique sections.
