Go Ape Buxton Treetop Challenge!
Entry / Cost: From £36.95. Check current prices when booking.
A forest adventure in the heart of the Peak District. Located on the edge of the town, the course has high ropes crossings, Tarzan swings and zip wires. Go Ape is nestled in the heart of Derbyshire – adjacent to Poole’s Cavern – which is also well worth a visit.
Treetop Challenge is an exhilarating self-guided 2-3 hour journey through the forest canopy. It includes a detailed safety brief from one of their qualified instructors before you set off into the tree tops. You’ll get to clamber up rope ladders, traverse tricky crossings, swing into giant cargo nets and ride super-fast zip wires.
Built on the hilltops, Go Ape Buxton offers breath-taking views. It also features multiple tree-to-tree ziplines. An enjoyable day out for friends and older families alike, enjoy 2-3 hours of non-stop action-packed fun. Scramble up rope ladders, tackle tree top obstacles, experience their famous ziplines and take on its Tarzan swings.
Go Ape normally operates in rain, but may close in thick ice, thunderstorms or gales. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe, closed-heel shoes.
Grown-up fun in the great outdoors. Take the time to waste a moment.
