Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 184 reviews
Monkey Trunks offers fun for children, adults and families! Participants begin with ground school and receive safety instructions on how to navigate through the course. They then move on to the green course to demonstrate they have the ability to properly use their equipment. After completing these two stages, participants will progress through the levels - each level becomes progressively more challenging! Monkey Trunks courses feature ziplines, swinging beams, tightropes, rolling logs, hanging tires, cargo nets and more! Each Monkey Trunks location includes a children's course for the littlest of monkeys, with platforms no more than 6' off the ground. The children's courses include 6-8 challenges with an 80' zipline at the finish. Reservations are encouraged and can be made anytime online or by phone.
6. The Eastern Trail
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 34 reviews
Reviewed By NHjo - Saco, United States
A portion of the Eastern Trail goes over the beautiful Scarborough salt marsh via a dirt walkway and small bridge and has great views of the marsh, the seagulls, terns, and ducks (and the train, when it's running). It's a fairly short portion of the Eastern Trail and is easy to do. There's a small parking lot near it, right off the main road going to Pine Point. The trail is a few yards past the Audubon Center. It's a great walk or bike ride, especially on a warm, sunny day.
