Aberfoyle Reviews

Fabulous time for all the family.
Fabulous time for all the family.
This was my first ever Go Ape experience on my birthday at the ripe old age of 47... the staff we encountered were friendly and put safety at the forefront of everything. Before moving off on our own we felt fully confident on what we were doing. The course was amazing as it started with a massive zip line and then with shaken knees and the adrenaline pumping we were off on our own. Thank you to the staff there and I look forward to our next visit

Went with a friend to do the zipline experience. WOW! What a thrill the staff were very fun and also professional. The safety brief gave me all the confidence I needed. And the value for money is outstanding. You won't find a better thrill for the price.
