The Canopy Walkway rises over 60 metres from the ridge top to above the tree tops. Watch the birds, take in the view and wait for other jungle dwellers to arrive. Arrange a pre-dawn visit to experience the jungle awakening, foraging birds or animals, and the rising sun.   The walkways provide relatively easy passage above the rough terrain, and protect the lightly vegetated ground and fragile soils. Some walkways follow gentle gradients along the Temburong River. Others climb over ridge tops to access adjacent valleys and river crossing points. Suspension bridges cross rivers and streams.

The walks are within the capability of normally healthy people. The youngest recent visitor to the Canopy Walkway was – 4 months (yet be born) and the oldest 86. Walks and activities can be selected to suit personal preferences.
