点评:The skywalk is part of the Sequoia zoo - a single ticket gives admission to both. The zoo is like most zoos - depressing and upsetting, seeing the few animals they have pacing up and down in small enclosures, with birds in areas too small to fly.
But the Skywalk is definitely something they should expand. More skywalk, less zoo. It’s self-guided and starts up a gentle ramp until you end up on platforms about 35m / 90ft up in the air, built around redwood trees. The platforms are connected either by small suspension-bridge walkways, or more flexible ropeway-type walkways. The views are good although the network of walkways is a little short.
The most obvious comparison is to the Trees of Mystery which is about 40 minutes north of Eureka by car. Trees of Mystery definitely has longer, higher, more expansive walkways, but it’s also nearly twice the price and is always very crowded. Redwood Skywalk is much less crowded for a similar, but shorter walk. If you can tolerate the zoo, then it’s worth the visit for the Skywalk.
翻译:空中走廊是红杉动物园的一部分,一张票可以同时进入两个地方。这个动物园和大多数动物园一样,令人沮丧和不安,看到为数不多的动物在狭小的围栏里走来走去,鸟儿在狭小的围栏里飞不起来。
但是空中走廊绝对是他们应该扩大的地方。多建空中走廊,少建动物园。空中走廊是自助式的,从缓坡开始,直到你到达大约 35 米/90 英尺高的平台,平台围绕着红杉树而建。平台之间通过小型悬索桥走道或更灵活的索道式走道连接。虽然走道网络有点短,但景色很好。
最明显的对比是距离尤里卡以北约 40 分钟车程的神秘之树。神秘之树的走道肯定更长、更高、更宽阔,但价格也几乎是后者的两倍,而且总是人满为患。红杉空中走廊人流少得多,但走道距离更短。如果您可以忍受动物园,那么天空步道也值得一游。
