I am sure I saw a map from a certain maptastic poster months back that had multiple "secret" walking paths around the Tree of Life at AK. I can easily lay hands on one that has a single secret path marked behind the ToL, but cannot easily find the one I'm thinking of. I'm returning to AK next month and would love to take the family exploring....

Thanks!

You walk IN the exit of the Tough to be a Bug, attraction.

Then you just walk on past the exit doors, and that's the path. Drops you on the opposite side of the tree.

This is wrong...the path is right thru the FP machines for its tuff to be a bug...it empties out near the bridge to Africa...we always enter on the Africa bridge side...I think there is a huge catfish exhibit right there..its a great walkway and last time we went we were the only people there...

here is a pic taken from it

Sorry, but CathrynRose is correct.

There's a great "secret pathway" most folks miss in DAK.

If you walk into the EXIT path of "It's Tough to Be a Bug" (wait until there is NOT a group just exiting after the show) and keep on going straight... past the theater exit doors... there is a very quiet path that takes you all the way to the "Africa" entrance.
There are birds and other animals on display, and a very nice waterfall as well.

Kind of romantic to be virtually "alone" right in the middle of a busy park.

This path can be accessed on either end, but its easier to find the first time if you just walk INTO the path marked "Exit" for ITTBAB.

(Good way to get across the park during the Jammin' Jungle Parade when the Asia-to-Africa main roadway is closed for the floats.)

The yellow line in my map detail is the path.
(Disregard the green and purple lines on the map.)

There is also one the starts at the ITTBAB FP machines and goes right up to the tree of life...also very quiet and private also...thats the one I was thinking...sorry If I caused confusion..

If you look right to the bottom of the yellow H on Robos map...the H in "secret Path" you will see the path I am talking it comes out right below where that does at the bridge to Africa and right at the ITTBAB FP machines
 
red line is the one I am thinking...my poor attempt at a Robo map...LOL

I have taken the way by complete accident...had no idea it was suppose to be a secret path. We came out of a Bugs life and went the opposite of the crowd and ended up this way...
 
I believe your referring to Robo, the Map King. Try this thread post #2: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2249354&highlight=rope+drop+maps&page=2

I personally think Robo should put out his own mini-guide book with all his maps. He does have alot of them at StichKingdom. http://www.stitchkingdom.com/ Go to the top of the web page, highlite tools, and click on Maps by Robo.

I hop on over to StitchKindom now and again and I totally missed the RoboMaps!!! Loving it!!:thumbsup2

So did I, and I really enjoyed the peace and quiet, and there was NO-ONE on this path!:thumbsup2
 
I had heard about the ITTBAB exit path but never the other one! Cool!
 
Thanks to the OP for brining up this topic and to Robo and the other poster for showing the paths! This is so cool....I will def be using it when I go to the World next time!
