How to get down from the tree?

If it is not more than three feet taller than your height, jump. If it is taller than that, get a good grip on the tree and slowly climb down. See further: How to Climb a Tree .

Question

Can I climb barefoot?

Community Answer

Yes, and some people prefer to do that because your feet can provide excellent grip. Keep in mind though that it's possible to get splinters or cuts this way, so be careful.

Question

How do I run up the tree?

Anthony Templeman

Community Answer

Run to the tree jump and try to get a firm hold. Make sure there are no spikes or branches that can tear at you, then ascend by pulling yourself up hastily. Try not to be skittish, or you will lose your footing.

I try to climb but I can't! How can I improve?

Community Answer

Try trees with big branches that are low to the ground, as they are easier to climb. Also, try to find trees with flatter branches. Remember, practice makes perfect!
