CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

I love going on active family days out but it’s often hard to find somewhere that will cater for both my daughters (aged 8 and 5) and for it to be fun for us grown-ups too. But after first experiencing Go Ape in Temple Newsam (to write a review for yorkshirefamilies.co.uk) with my eldest brother and step dad where we did the hardest course the Treetop Challenge (for those taller than 1.4m), I was desperate to return to Go Ape with my own daughters and take on the Treetop Adventure (you can also do Treetop Adventure+ in between the two courses for those over 1.2m and for adult beginners).

So as soon as we heard that Go Ape! was back open following lockdown 2020, we jumped at the chance to review the Treetop Adventure course at the site at Normanby Hall, near Scunthorpe (to write a review for mamamei.co.uk and blogupnorth.co.uk).

We had that much fun, quality time together in our unconventional family and some much needed exercise in the open air, that we have decided to embark on an even bigger adventure...

My children, our friends and I are going to take on every single Go Ape Treetop Adventure course in the UK over the course of a year to prove that everyone can get active and have fun together whilst also taking on challenges and spending some quality team-building time together!

We will be blogging, vlogging and swinging through the trees all year round to showcase what Go Ape has to offer so you can follow our journey as we try out the large variety of courses and locations, which includes Grizedale in the Lake District, London city adventures right through to Haldon Forest in Devon. That's 24 courses by the end of 2021!
