Black Park Country Park

(Buckinghamshire)

Near Slough

Set in 530 acres of beautiful woodland with a centre-piece lake.

One of the best days out in Buckinghamshire: Breathtaking scenery; tree top high wires, crossings and wind-in-your-face zip wires; finished off with a liberal dose of people in search of their inner Tarzan.

Black Park Country Park boasts the perfect tree-tops to monkey around in, plus there are plenty of other things to do so forest-lovers can enjoy a great day out.

Extend your day and get on yer bike at Black Park Country Park. Go Ape! Forest Biking is the perfect way to make the most of your day after you’ve swung in the trees.

Coming soon to Black Park Country Park is our epic Forest Segway Experience.

Great fun but very tiring. Lot's of aches and pains the next day. Weather was dry but I would imagine the experience would be much different in the wet/cold. Welcome staff were very helpful and safety teach in covered everything. Young Sarah added a personal touch by folllowing us to the first challenge and advising us how to get through it. Much appreciated.. Afternoon was real value for the money. Would love to go again..

Everything was excellent but the Tarzan swing should be bigger to make it even better.
