Tip-Toe through the Treetops Canopy Walk

Tour one of Atlanta’s last remaining urban forests from 40 feet in the air from the ABG’s new Canopy Walk. Extending 600 feet from a bluff in the Garden into the branches of oaks, hickories and poplars, the unique reverse suspension bridge is considered the only tree canopy- level walkway of its kind in the United States. By linking the 15-acre existing Garden to the adjacent Storza Woods, the Canopy Walk will double the visitor’s experience, providing 30 acres of both formal and informal gardens to explore. The 12-foot-wide concrete pathway, a dynamic and virtually invisible structural system, creates a suspension bridge that affords visitors an aerial view of the highly patterned woodland garden below, with understory trees, native azaleas, camellias, hydrangeas, perennials and seasonal bulbs.
