Go Ape Forest of Dean

The Ultimate Forest Adventure Trinity.

If you're looking to couple the charming sites of the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean with something that gets your blood pumping a little more, then you're in luck! Nestled deep within England's largest oak woodland, awaits hours of high-octane monkey business making for some of the best outdoor activities in Gloucestershire.

You'll find three of our adventures across two sites at the Forest of Dean, and depending on which one you're after, you'll be heading to either Mallards Pike or Beechenhurst Lodge.

Mallards Pike Lake

Our Treetop Challenge at Mallards Pike Lake offers 2-3 hours of forest thrills as you zip, swing and clamber your way to the status of Chief Gorilla amongst your Tribe. After a detailed safety brief from one of our experienced instructors you’ll be tackling canopy-high crossings, leaping off free-fall Tarzan swings and riding high-speed ziplines. Our rope ladders are your gateway to a hidden world. Grown-up fun in the great outdoors. For those over 1.4 metres tall.

If heights aren't your thing, why not jump on board our Forest Segway experience and become one with the surrounding nature? That's right, you may encounter wild boar and deer as our stealthy electric powered Segways enable you to get up close and personal with the wonders of the local nature.

Beechenhurst Lodge

In the heart of the Forest of Dean, Beechenhurst Lodge plays host to our Treetop Adventure and Treetop Adventure Plus high ropes experiences. Treetop Adventure is a jam-packed hour in the tree-tops made up of intricate crossings, wobbly bridges and a zip wire finale - guaranteed to evoke screams and laughter. Treetop Adventure Plus is a high ropes experience that will introduce you to a more challenging series of obstacles, higher platforms and longer zips. You’ll absorb all the fun of Treetop Adventure and then some. An action-packed hour designed for families with older children in mind. This one hits the feel-good factor every time.

Perfect for an unforgettable children’s birthday party, you can download a free party invitation and add party bags to your booking.
