DAYSOUT Up, Up and Away! Go Ape If you haven't come across it before, Go Ape is the UK’s award-winning, number one forest adventure. Days out at Go Ape are about living life a little more adventurously, having fun with friends and family, and getting in touch with your inner Tarzan (he’s in there, we promise!). The ultimate outdoor experience, Go Ape takes one lush green forest with a healthy dollop of breathtaking scenery, blends it with a smattering of treetop high wires, tricky crossings and windin-your-face zip wires, and then serves up an adventure that never fails. Tree Top Adventure The classic and original Go Ape experience is our 2-3 hour Tree Top Adventure. What's more, the result is spectacular. Not only does the Go Ape experience get the adrenalin pumping, it encourages visitors to step outside of their comfort zones, and above all (no pun intended), it’s just great fun. www.goape.co.uk Boasting two leafy hideouts in the Garden of England, Go Ape can be found in the heart of Bedgebury Pinetum near Tunbridge Wells; and Leeds Castle, Maidstone. Both locations include the original Tree Top Adventure and Tree Top Junior, the latest experience to join the Go Ape family tree. Join us if you’re: • Age 10 or older • Over 1.4m/4ft 7in tall • Under 20.5 stone/130kg Like all of the best things in life, Go Ape is better when it's an experience shared. So, whether that’s with work colleagues, a bunch of mates or perhaps your stag or hen do, bring your tribe and prepare to have a ball. Go Ape also accommodates staff and corporate days – and catering for between 15-280 people, it will certainly be a memorable office day out. We hope to see you in the trees! www.goape.co.uk Tree Top Junior If you’re looking for outdoor activities for children, then Tree Top Junior is the answer. This fun-filled day out includes canopy exploring, trail blazing and obstacles for all to enjoy. Your young ones will negotiate crossings and finish on a high (literally) with one awesome zip wire. It is aimed at 6-12 year olds; however, as long as you’re over one metre tall, you can explore the canopy too. Visit the website for more information, plus to help you to decide whether the course is right for your mini Tarzans. www.goape.co.uk/junior 95
