We had an incredible day!! 6 friends in our own wee group- Paula was the best instructor. She made the ‘training’ a lot of fun, was always around the course to give us encouragement when we (I) got a bit scared. Would highly recommend and I can’t wait to go back for Challenge Plus!!!

We had the most amazing time at Go Ape and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the whole experience was smooth, professional, and fun. The staff greeted us warmly and were super helpful throughout the entire visit. They took safety seriously, walking us through every detail in a clear and friendly way which definitely helped settle a few nerves in the group.

Great time at Go Ape Cockfosters with my 12 year old son. Florian was a superb instructor & after the tuition we both felt confident to take on the treetop challenge course. The course itself was very good, 5 separate courses each ending on a zip wire & each getting harder & higher up into the treetops!

Yes, dogs are allowed in the park subject to Enfield Council's conditions - please check local signage if unsure. No four-legged friends are permitted up on the course!

There is a cafe on site - Ripe Kitchen - located nearby our cabin and the main carpark. Hours are seasonal, so please check their website for opening times and more information.

There is an accessible toilet near the cabin in the main toilet block, a radar key is required for access. There are baby changing facilities in both the men's and women's toilets.

The main forest paths around the cabin and course are quite uneven in places, making access difficult. Some of the course can be viewed from beneath on the main path. If unsure, or if you have specific accessibility needs, please contact us in advance of your visit so we can help.

Yes, there is free parking located in Trent Country Park - however it can get very busy during peak periods, so please allow plenty of time to find space and walk to to our cabin.

Customers can store belongings with us, but it is at their own risk and Go Ape takes no responsibility for items left in the cabin. It is first come first served and during peak periods, there may not be space for large items.

Toilets on site are beside the main car park and less than a minute from our cabin. They are run and maintained by Enfield Council. We recommend all customers use them before starting their activity, as the course is quite far away from them.
