Outdoor adventure school trips for Primary schools

Our award-winning school trips are tailored to suit your learning objectives and help develop life skills, build on personal development and encourage self-confidence. 

We believe that being outdoors and around nature goes hand-in-hand with mental and physical wellbeing, and we love it when young people come to life while they're tackling our adventures.

This experience in the great outdoors encourages an emotional connection to nature, which we hope leaves a lasting impression to create a future generation who are committed to both enjoying and looking after the environment.

Children leave taller, stronger and more resilient after a primary school trip to Go Ape. Choose from 25 locations across the UK, you really can take learning outside the classroom. 

Prices start from £14 per schoolchild* and required supervisors go free.
