Uniquely divided into two separate sites for little monkeys and more experienced thrill seekers, Go Ape Forest of Dean has something for every flavour of an adventurer! Each individual activity offers families the chance to build their confidence and conquer the obstacles they face throughout their Go Ape adventure.
Have a go on the high-ropes adventure in the forest canopy or dip and dive out in the open on the zip-wire experience. Stay active and have bags of family fun at Go Ape Forest of Dean, there are hours of forest thrills to enjoy!
Fun Activities for Thrill Seekers
Set in the beautiful surroundings of the Forest of Dean Beechenhurst, little ones can find their footing on Treetop Adventure (suitable for explorers over 1m) as they face three loops of tricky crossings followed by a double zip-wire finale.
Looking to level up? Treetop Adventure Plus is perfect for thrill seekers (over 6 years and 1.2m tall) who’ve smashed the Treetop Adventure but aren't quite ready for the Treetop Challenge. It's a combination of treetop obstacles, adrenaline-fuelled adventure and epic challenges! If you're looking for family thrills, this is the ultimate forest adventure! Let your mini monkeys gain more independence as they take on higher platforms, spicier crossings and an epic 120m zip-wire back to the ground! A day full of ape-tastic fun as you climb, jump and leap across the tree canopy - channel your inner ape!
If you're looking for more adventure, head to Forest of Dean Mallards Pike. You can graduate to the next thrill level as you zip, zoom and leap through this mystical Forest on Treetop Challenge! You'll find an adventure for adults as well as kids, especially if you're a zip-wire fanatic.
Choose your own path through the canopy with the option to adjust the difficulty of these high-ropes courses.
The fun doesn’t have to end when your feet touch the ground! Make a day of it and explore the ancient forest and its hundreds of acres of wild woodland. Did you know Forest of Dean was an inspiration for Tolkien’s famous books? There are so many magical settings to discover and take photos of, #selfie! Or why not take a family portrait photo with the breathtaking scenery as your backdrop?
You’ll also have the chance to face 15m platforms, and 4+ zips, or if you’re fonder of the ground, why not explore on two wheels with the Forest Segway Experience?
For any animal lovers out there, keep your eyes peeled for wild boar and deer in and amongst the woodland... Will you be able to spot them?
Food & Drink There is a lovely picnic area for families to rest up in after a wild day of awesome zip-wires, walking routes and cycle trails. There is an onsite cafe too if you haven't bought a packed lunch with you already.
