Will Go Ape activities proceed in bad weather?

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