Sherwood Pines

(Nottinghamshire)

Near Nottingham

Enjoy a Classic Tree Top Adventure and our Epic Segway Adventure in Nottinghamshire.

Just 20 miles from Nottingham, our tree top adventure in Robin Hood country features a tree to tree zip wire (one of the only tree top tree zip wires in the country!) We like to think these are the special Go Ape ingredient that makes the outdoor adventure at Sherwood Pines great for unique days out near Nottingham.

You can swing through our forest and get the best views over 3000 acres of woodland - A great place to escape and enjoy epic outdoor adventure activities in the forest.

And the adventure does not need to stop there. You can get off the beaten track and enjoy our latest forest adventure with Go Ape Forest Segway - an epic segway experience near Nottingham with a down to earth twist.

Rated 5 Bananas Gaby - Tree Top Adventure, on 21 May 2013
Two of us went and we had a good time, however got stuck at a few points behind other people which was frustrating as you had to stand around a lot waiting for them to get a move on. The rope net thin
