Langkawi Canopy Adventures S/B was founded in 2001, after the team under the leadership of Juergen and Sabariah Zimmerer had operated in previous years under the umbrellas of hotels or other tour operators. Their son-Ashraff Zimmerer ,a graduate in Aircraft Maintenance is now managing the whole thing. Heard of Air Trekking Langkawi is the only place outside of Costa Rica to offer this Fear Factor- worthy activity! This tour is at Gunung Raya, Langkawi's tallest mountain and home to more than 400 species of wildlife. A guided trek up the 890m tall Grantoid Mountain is a popular rough outdoor option through a few hundred meters into the primary rainforest. An uphill walk through the bush, to a slab of rock where you're taught how to abseil and familiarize yourself with the equipment. Once you're certified fit to proceed, trek a little further to a network of cables and ropes. Safety is paramount. You're hooked to a multitude of safety devices and - whoosh! - You take the leap of faith and sail, Tarzan-like, through the million-year-old rainforest.
