What is go-ape?

Go Ape is an outdoor adventure company that offers treetop obstacle courses designed to challenge participants both physically and mentally. Imagine yourself suspended high above the ground, navigating a series of obstacles that test your agility, balance, and courage. This exhilarating experience begins with a comprehensive safety briefing and gear fitting to ensure everyone is prepared for the adventure ahead.

Each Go Ape course features a thrilling combination of zip lines, Tarzan swings, rope ladders, and various crossings that vary in difficulty. As you progress through the course, the views from the treetops become increasingly breathtaking. The rustling leaves, occasional glimpses of wildlife, and the fresh scent of pine create a sensory journey like no other.

Go Ape isn’t just about overcoming physical challenges; it’s also about immersing yourself in nature and experiencing the thrill of adventure in a unique and memorable way. Whether you’re conquering your fear of heights or simply seeking an adrenaline rush, Go Ape offers an opportunity to push your limits and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors from a whole new perspective.
