Always a great time. We’ve been quite a few times now and are never disappointed. In our most recent trip we took my niece who is disabled. She is able bodied but has a variety of difficulties due to a rare disease. She was so excited to go but quickly became overwhelmed and scared. It would have been easy for the workers to become impatient with her and ask her to get off but they were extremely supportive and one lady went above and beyond to spent dedicated time with her and was able to get her to complete a short part of the course. She was really so much help that day and her compassion is very much appreciated.

We visited as a group ranging from 17 years of age to 72 and all had a fantastic time. Staff were so helpful and friendly. I was sceptical due to my age and level of fitness but as long as you can get up there you'll be fine! I would recommend anyone giving it a go. So much fun!

Located near to Robin Hood's infamous Major Oak hideout, Go Ape Sherwood Pines can be found 20 miles from Nottingham. The 100-year-old pines provide a high canopy and although the woodland is open, you'll find our high ropes course nicely hidden within Sherwood Pines.
