Confident kids can take on more height, wobble and zip wire fun in Whinlatter’s mountain forest.
We’re taking a winter break at Whinlatter until 7th February, but next year’s adventures are ready to book now.
Whinlatter Forest has one of our most challenging Treetop Adventure Plus courses, set against the backdrop of stunning mountain forest scenery. It’s a truly unique way to experience the outdoors with three exciting sections featuring brilliant obstacles.
Start with the Treetop Adventure course, then it's time to hit the heights of Adventure Plus for this daring final section. With more challenging crossings, this turns up the adventure and the fun, finishing with the biggest zip wire ride of the day back to the ground.
It promises an unforgettable experience amidst the beauty of the Lake District.
