Pre-booking is essential.
Pre-booking is essential. Group sizes are limited to 6 people or 2 households. Online bookings are capped at 6 people; if your 2 households total more than 6 people you will need to call our booking team on 01603 895500 to secure your spaces. You can book on the day if there are spaces available, but phone signal and internet are unreliable in our forest locations, so we highly recommend doing this before you travel to avoid disappointment.
With 34 sites across Britain there is a Go Ape site within reach.
Head to our Locations page to explore our courses or find your nearest site by searching using your postcode.
Prices vary according to the activity, location and concessions. For an overview of prices please browse the Adventure page here.
We recommend you wear gloves for comfort. Bring your own or pre-order our recommended gloves and collect from our cabin. We suggest that you wear something you don’t mind getting grubby. Dress for the weather so bring along a mac if the forecast is for rain. You need to make sure you have the correct footwear which can’t fall off easily. This should offer protection to your toes and heel. Please do not wear sandals, flip flops, slip-off or high heel shoes. Your stomach area will need to be covered to prevent the harness rubbing, and long hair must be tied back to prevent entanglements in the equipment.
Of course! We would love to help you celebrate. You can book your activity online, there is an option to add party bags which will be ready for you to collect on arrival or when you finish your adventure, if you prefer. If there are not 6 spaces available, please book spaces in the subsequent session and you will then be able to go round the course together. If you are booking for 2 households and have more than 6 participants, you will need to call our friendly booking team on 01603 895500 and they will secure your spaces. The maximum group size is for the people going up into the treetops. Any supervising adults remaining on the ground would be additional to this. Please ensure you have enough adults so that you can arrive separately and travel around the site in groups of no more than 6 at any one time. Social distancing must be maintained at all times with anyone from a different household. In order to manage space, we currently ask that unless you are directly supervising children on the course, that spectators wait away from the activity.
All of our locations have picnic benches around the forest or somewhere you can put a blanket to enjoy a birthday cake or a picnic in groups of no more than 6.
Yes. All our adventures are designed to operate in compliance with social distancing rules, as well as all other current government guidance and legislation.
The responsibility for ensuring that social distancing is maintained at all times has to be a joint effort between Go Ape staff and participants. Participants should courteously speak out where they see other participants not adhering to proper social distancing.
Customers are asked to respect social distancing rules and manage them themselves, as it is not always easy for patrolling staff to know which participants are in the same household. If you do have any concerns at any point, please make these concerns known to other participants and to our staff. Our instructors are there to help, but won’t be present at all times during your Go Ape adventure.

If you are booking Treetop Adventure or Adventure+ your party will be in the trees for 1 hour. If you have a Nets Adventure booking then you will be on the Nets for 2 hours.
Go Ape has been certified as a Covid-19 Secure organisation. That means than whilst you are with us, you can be assured that we can comply with the latest government guidance. Our methods of operations have been agreed with our Primary Authority, (an independent government health and safety organisation with national authority).
Therefore, we can support birthday parties, however, you will be responsible for dividing your party into groups of no more than 6 in each of these bubbles.
Go Ape is an excellent wet weather activity. Our courses are substantially sheltered from rain and wind by the trees themselves so as long as you’re appropriately dressed for the weather you should still have great memories of your experience. The course remains open in all weathers, except thick ice, thunderstorms and gales. Rain makes the course muddier than usual – which can add to the fun, but you might want dry clothes to change into for the journey home.
If we have to close for unsafe weather conditions, we will offer you a refund, credit note or reschedule your booking. If unsafe weather is forecast we will aim to make the decision as early as possible, and will do our best to contact you to try and save you a wasted journey.
