Wendover Woods, Bucks

Wendover Woods feature heaps of colour and budding wildlife, complete with the smallest bird in Europe, the rare firecrest. Sitting pretty in the beautiful Chiltern Hills is possibly our most exciting Treetop Challenge to date. It features challenging crossings which are sure to be a memorable part of your day out.

The Treetop Adventure packs a punch too. Officially one of our hardest adventure courses there’s 429-metres of high rope crossings and a cracking 85-metre zip wire finale.

Treetop Challenge Extreme Route Re-open

If you’re looking to push your limits as far as they can go, you’ll be thrilled to hear that the extreme route on site 5 of our Treetop Challenge is not only re-open, but dialled up even further. 

Towering 13 metres into the sky, it features new crossings such as the Plate Hop and the See-saws to test your strength, balance and nerve. Your reward? A 150 metre zip wire to cap off an extreme end to your adventure.

GO WILD AT WENDOVER woods

Wendover Woods - where you’ll find Go Ape Wendover - is the perfect blend of vibrant scenery and stunning views over Oxford, London and down the valley.

The Forest Centre has almost finished a multi-million-pound re-development so there’s a brand new café opening, promising stunning Chiltern views.

There are lots to explore in this 325-hectare woodland. Hit one of the walking trails and you may spot one of Europe’s smallest birds – the rare firecrest.

If you fancy a fresh twist on the walking front – you can give Nordic Walking a try with Ridgeway Nordic Walking who run sessions at Wendover for all levels and abilities.

If you prefer to do your exploring on two wheels, bring the bikes and hit the family cycle trail. There’s a well-surfaced trail with some climbs and descents.

Looking for more? Then enjoy orienteering, the Zog Activity Trail, Gruffalo sculpture, running trails and if you get here for 9am on a Saturday you can join in on the weekly parkrun!

  • Go Ape high ropes course

    There was an issue of being delayed on the first circuit because of a frightened small child who moved very slowly and tentatively. However the supervisors were very understanding and gave us extra time at the end.
