There are plenty of ways to experience the Myakka Canopy Walkway. Looking at ratings and reviews previously given by customers, these are the best tours available right now:

• Myakka State Park E-Bike Safari

The Myakka Canopy Walkway is open to visitors to Myakka River State Park; the entrance fee to the park is US$6 per vehicle (2–8 people), US$4 for a single-occupant vehicle, and US$2 per pedestrian or bicyclist. You don’t need to purchase a separate ticket for the walkway.

The Myakka Canopy Walkway, part of Myakka River State Park, typically keeps the same hours as the park—you can visit from 8am to sunset every day of the year. Keep in mind that the North Gate entrance to the park is open from 8am to 5pm on Saturdays, Sundays, and state holidays.

No, walking on the Myakka Canopy Walkway is not difficult. The path to the walkway is short and mostly flat, and the suspended bridge itself is easy to walk across, though it gently sways. The only strenuous part is the optional climb up the observation tower, which involves stairs

The Myakka Canopy Walkway––among the first public treetop trails in the US––is 25 feet (9 meters) above the ground, with the tallest tower reaching 74 feet (23 meters) above the ground. That’s high enough for unbeatable views of local wetlands and treetops, and to spot birds such as hawks, eagles, and vultures.

Sorry, your furry friends have to stay below. While dogs (and domestic pets in general) are allowed on most walking trails and developed campgrounds within Myakka River State Park, they are not allowed into structures including the canopy walk unless they are trained service dogs.
