Go Ape at Bedgebury National Pinetum

Active and Outdoors

Family

Go Ape is the UK’s number one forest adventure. Days out at Go Ape are about living life more adventurously, having fun with friends and family and getting in touch with your inner Tarzan (he’s in there, we promise).

There’s no greater rush than the great outdoors, so whether your Tribe is a stag do, birthday party, corporate event or simply a day out with the kids, Go Ape make their courses as fun and as accessible as possible.

Go Ape Bedgebury is an ideal day out if you’re looking to make unforgettable memories with the family. Alongside the classic Go Ape Challenge, there sits an Adventure course for explorers as little as 1m. You can make a day of it around the forest as well, with fun Gruffalo trails, wild adventure play areas and a whole arboretum to discover together. Take a look at the adventures Go Ape has to offer to see which one is ideal for you and your Tribe.

Challenge Course

The classic and original Go Ape experience for those over 1.4m tall. You’ll be briefed for safety before you fly down zip wires, leap off Tarzan Swings and tackle wobbly crossings up to 13m off the ground. At height, you’re guaranteed to witness the breath-taking scenery of the pinetum while you’re enjoying the course. You’ll share 2 - 3 hours of fun and adventure going ape in the trees with your pri-mates.

Minimum Height - 1.4m (4ft7")

Maximum weight - 20.5 stones (130kg)

Challenge *Under 13s must be accompanied by a participating adult. One participating adult (18+) to supervise up to four children aged under 13 while on the course. One adult (18+) to supervise up to eight children aged 13-15 from the ground or on the activity.

Adventure Course

Uncover a Tree Top Adventure for Junior Tarzans. No one loves adventure more than kids, so Go Ape have designed a Tree Top Adventure exclusively for little monkeys. The Adventure course is aimed at Tiny Tarzans aged between 6 and 12 years old, but anyone over 1m tall is able to take part if they’re feeling adventurous enough. They’ll experience their very own wobbly crossings, rope ladders and zip wires on a course up to 6m off the ground. Their adventure will last for approximately 1 hour, so it’s the perfect addition to any family trip to the forest.
