WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, MICH (WXYZ) — Great news Metro Detroit! Something you can do safely right now.

TreeRunner West Bloomfield Adventure Park is now open for the season. The park is the Largest Adventure Park in Michigan, and is one of the only outdoor "amusement" park type experiences that is allowed to open at this time, thanks to an outdoor natural environment, commitment to following the rules of social distancing and not being an organized sport or activity. TreeRunner is following safety protocols and social distancing guidelines as recommended by local, state and national health officials, to create a safe environment for guests. They have implemented precautions deeply reducing total capacity, providing single use gloves for all climbers, installation of hand sanitizing stations throughout the park and requiring guests and staff to have temperature checks before entering park.

The TreeRunner Adventure Park is located in a large, outdoor forested area. Numerous health professionals have stated the benefits and safety of outdoor exercise.

Not only does exercise boost physical well-being, it also lifts the spirits of those who participate making it a positive for mental health.
