High ropes, fast zip lines and Go Ape's longest Treetop Challenge in Cannock Chase Forest
Take on a big outdoor adventure at Go Ape Cannock Chase, set among the woodland trails of Cannock Chase Forest in Staffordshire. As the closest Go Ape location to Birmingham, it is a brilliant choice for families with older children, teenagers and adults who want to swap the usual day out for high ropes, zip lines and a proper challenge in the trees.
Your Treetop Challenge starts with a safety briefing and harness fitting before you climb into the forest canopy. From there, you will tackle wobbly crossings, climbing sections, daring Tarzan Swings and speedy zip lines as you work your way around the course. At nearly 1,500 metres long, this is Go Ape's longest Treetop Challenge, making it a full-scale adventure for anyone ready to test their nerve.
The course is designed to build confidence as much as excitement. Take each obstacle at your own pace, encourage the rest of your group and enjoy the achievement of making it through one of Go Ape's biggest forest challenges. It is suitable for participants aged 10 and over who are at least 1.4m tall.
There is plenty to make a full day of it too. Cannock Chase Forest has walking and cycling trails, wildlife spotting and nearby activities including disc golf. Younger children can choose Treetop Adventure or Treetop Adventure Plus, while Forest Segway sessions offer another exciting way to explore the woodland.
Allow around two to three hours for check-in, your safety briefing and time on the course. Book Go Ape Cannock Chase tickets and get ready to climb, swing and zip through the forest.
