What is Treetop Adventure?
You'll find Treetop Adventure at 27 Go Ape courses across the UK. It's a high ropes course adventure for all children, but especially younger ones, as this activity is available to anyone over 1m tall.
As with all Go Ape adventures, the activity begins with a full safety briefing and a training section so that you and your Tribe can find your bearings. Safety will always be our number 1 priority. It's why we've been awarded the prestigious RoSPA Gold award for health and safety practices for four years in a row.
After the all-important safety briefing, they will tackle tree to tree crossings on 2-3 different loops (depending on the location) with a zip wire to bring you back down onto the forest floor at the end of each loop.
Children under 6 need to be supervised by an adult on the high ropes course. For children over 6 , parents can decide to supervise (and cheer on) from the forest floor or on the treetops, although we recommend children under 1.2m tall have an adult with them on the course in case they need any help.
In this video, you will get a flavour of the activity as we feature the key parts of the adventure, including:
- Safety briefing
- Training section
- The various loops, including treetop crossings and zip wires

We had an outstanding experience on the high ropes Jr course. All staff were brilliant with our students, both supportive and patient. We all look forward to going again soon.

Great fun for all the family and very safe. The staff fully explain how the safety systems work to make sure you remain safe around the course, which is different between the junior and adult courses. The junior course has a safety system where you follow the wire for the entire course and the staff connect you up - perfect as it means you don't have to worry about keeping a constant watch that your children are doing it right. The adult course requires a more hands on approach as you have to keep moving from one safety wire to the next, which allows you to choose between different difficulty options - but you have two lines and must always have one connected so you're not at risk of falling. The courses vary and offer a range of activities. The junior course has two courses and you get to choose which one to go one each time you go round - they operate a time limit here so you can go round as many times as you like in an hour. The adult course is split into 5 stages, with the first being the training section where you're fully supervised. The staff are really friendly and guide you through the process to make sure you remain safe but also enjoy your time. Highly recommended for a trip out for family, friends or even a work team building exercise.
