You should wear something that you don’t mind getting grubby. Dress for the weather so bring along a mac if it’s raining!

You need to make sure you have the correct footwear with closed toe and heel (with flat soles), no sandals or slip-off shoes.

Your stomach area will need to be covered and long hair must be tied back.

You can join the Treetop Adventure at Go Ape if you're:

  • Minimum height: 1m
  • Maximum weight: 130kg

Please note: Adults must supervise or participate with all children in the Go Ape Treetop Adventure.

  • Under 6: One participating adult can supervise two children aged six and under.
  • 6-15 Years Old: One adult can supervise up to eight children aged 6-15 years while on the course or on the ground. 

Children under 1.1m tall are recommended to have an adult with them on the course in case they need any help.

Go Ape is an excellent wet weather activity! The course remains open in all weathers, except when it is icy, stormy, in high winds or during lightning. Rain makes the course muddier than usual – which all adds to the fun! Don’t forget to dress for the weather.

Sometimes, unfortunately, a course may need to be closed for reasons beyond Go Ape's control, if this happens you will be given a full refund.
