Challenge Plus
The Ultimate High Ropes Test
Challenge Plus at Cockfosters is designed for thrill-seekers aged 10+ — with tougher crossings, higher platforms and longer zips than our classic course.
This dialled-up version of Treetop Challenge will test your grit and nerve. Take on 20 daring crossings including the tricky ‘Chantlemerle's Bridge’. Negotiating these tree-to-tree obstacles high above the forest floor will take balance and nerve. And don’t forget about five super-fast, super-long, super-exhilarating zip wires that'll bring you back down to the ground. It’s an unforgettable experience, just five minutes from Cockfosters tube station.
This is a physically demanding activity that requires a good level of fitness and strength.

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.
Go Ape Cockfosters is located in Trent Country Park, Cockfosters. The entrance to the park is on Cockfosters Road (A111), not via Snakes Lane - if your SatNav directs you that way, it is not correct! What3Words for the main gate is ///appear.pans.burn.
We're approximately 6 minutes drive from Junction 24 of the M25, and we're convienient for public transport too - we're less than 10 minutes walk from Cockfosters Tube station on the Piccadilly Line.
