Black Park Country Park

(Buckinghamshire)

Near Uxbridge

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

One of the best days out in Buckinghamshire and Berkshire, featuring our classic Go Ape experience in the trees, our latest segway adventure and biking through our beautiful park.

We’ll brief you for safety before you fly down a zip wire, leap off our Tarzan Swing and tackle our tree top high ropes crossings whilst enjoying some breathtaking scenery.

The adventure doesn’t need to stop there. Get off the beaten track and enjoy our latest forest adventure with Go Ape Forest Segway – an epic NEW experience with a down to earth twist. Or extend your day and get on our bikes. Go Ape Forest Biking is a great way to make the most of your day after you’ve swung in the trees. You won’t be able to book our bikes online – just head to the cabin.

Rated 5 Bananas Sheila - Forest Segway, on 17 May 2013
Enjoyed the whole experience, better if they went faster and the experience was longer-over too fast

Had a really good day and staff were friendly and helpful.
Rated 5 Bananas Sue - Tree Top Adventure, on 16 May 2013
Our briefing from Simon was excellent. I came with two ten year old boys and I felt that the staff were keeping an eye on us throughout our time on the course. Everyone was very welcoming and helpfu
Rated 5 Bananas Debbie - Tree Top Adventure, on 15 May 2013
Great fun for all the family. A bit concerned about the lack of supervision during the course particularly with young children in my party.
