More Info
What should I wear to Go Ape?

Footwear must be sturdy and suitable for the outdoors. No sandals, slip off shoes, open toes or heels.

Wear sensible clothes for adventure and please ensure your midriff is covered.

Gloves are a good idea. Either bring a pair or you can buy them at the cabin on the day.

Will my Go Ape adventure be cancelled 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, Go Ape might need to close the course for reasons beyond our control, if this happens you will be given a full refund.

What time should I arrive to my Go Ape activity?

Please ensure you arrive for your Go Ape activity 15 minutes before your session begins. 

Is Go Ape wheelchair-accessible?

Go Ape take pride in sharing their activities with as many people as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Go Ape in advance at [email protected]

Can I bring my phone or camera to Go Ape?

Please do! You’re going to want to capture these moments to share!

In order to keep your gadgets and others safe, Go Ape asks that all phones and cameras are attached to the participant. Lanyards are available to buy from the cabin, subject to availability.
