Get ready for an adventure
We recommend booking ahead online, though you can try at our cabin on the day. Make sure to check the activity’s requirements first, including age restrictions and supervision ratios. Please aim to arrive twenty minutes before your booking and check in at our cabin first thing. You can save time by having your group sign their Risk Acknowledgement beforehand, check your inbox for the link.

Sat nav to our locations is not always accurate. Please check your route before setting off and cross-reference with a map.
Leave the M25 at junction 24 and take the Stagg Hill/Cockfosters Road (A111). Continue for approximately 2.5 miles on the A111 and head straight over 3 roundabouts. Turn left into the main entrance of Trent Country Park. Sometimes your sat nav will try and send you to another entrance - make sure you join us from Cockfosters Road! The main entrance to Trent Country Park is not signposted to Go Ape so you'll need to keep your eyes peeled. There are two council car parks near the Cockfosters Road entrance.
Find us a 10-minute walk from Cockfosters tube station. As you leave the underground, turn right and walk up Cockfosters Road (A111, heading away from the shops). Trent Country Park is on your right-hand side approximately 400 metres along. Follow the park road and you’ll soon see our Go Ape cabin on the right.
What to wear and bring
Dress for fun in the forest! Closed, sturdy shoes are a must — no heels, slip-ons, flip-flops or Crocs (they might be comfy, but they're not adventure-proof). Keep your midriff covered so your harness sits over clothing, and tie back long hair — we don't want it catching in the treetops.
Oh, and trust us on this one — don't wear white. The forest floor has a sense of humour, and it doesn't play nicely with laundry day. Our adventures are great in all weathers, as long as you're prepared!
Our blog covers what to wear in every season and what to bring for a brilliant day out.

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.
