GoApe 2007Go Ape! High Wire Forest Adventure

Forest of Dean, Mallards Pike Lake, Park End, Lydney, Gloucestershire GL15 4HD

Take to the trees and speed down zip slides. They’re part of an ardrenalin filled course of rope bridges, Tarzan swings and crossings; all set up to 120 feet above the forest floor.

Our  tree-top adventures are growing UK-wide. The Go Ape result is spectacular. The experience gets the adrenalin pumping, gets people out of their comfort zones and above all (no pun intended), it’s just great fun.

Why not come and enjoy the views from the forest canopy?

Go Ape offers up to three hours of tree top fun. It’s a great way to get outdoors and have an adventure. We take one lush, green forest and a healthy dollop of breathtaking scenery; blend with a smattering of tree-top high wires, tricky crossings (using ladders, walkways, bridges and tunnels, rope and super-strong cable) and wind-in-your-face zip wires; and finish off with a liberal dose of people in search of their inner ape.

Every year, nearly half a million people Go Ape in the most awe-inspiring locations across the British Isles. So whatever your confidence and ability, if you love the outdoors and fancy taking on zip wires, Tarzan swings, rope ladders, high wire crossings and more, grab your tribe and head to your nearest course  for up to three hours of tree top adventure.  No two Go Ape experiences are the same. 

Go Ape is for anyone who likes to live life adventurously - you don’t have to be a seasoned explorer to have a Go Ape experience! Whilst we do have a few practical conditions  we think everyone has the Go Ape spirit just waiting to be unleashed! There’s no greater rush than the great outdoors, so whether your tribe is a stag do, birthday party, corporate event or simply a day out with the kids, we make our courses as fun and as accessible as possible.
