Treetop Adventure
An action-packed one-hour introduction to high ropes life.
Go Ape Treetop Adventure is a jam-packed hour of intricate crossings, wobbly bridges and a zip wire finale – guaranteed to evoke screams and laughter. It is a safe and controlled high ropes experience that uses a continuous belay system, meaning participants are always attached to the course. Treetop Adventure is an excellent way for children (and their supervising adults) to build confidence, learn about teamwork and develop problem-solving skills. Whether you’re swinging by their side in the trees or cheering them on from below, you’ll be amazed at how much taller little monkeys walk after conquering the course. Our Treetop Adventure courses are designed with the younger family in mind. A high ropes experience for those over a metre tall.

Just a great time, felt safe and supported by all the team, laughed all tge way round, Lucy our instructor was amazing. We loved it so much we're taking out an annual membership and hoping to book inne t weekend.
We had a fantastic time at Go Ape Dalby! The instructors were brilliant — really friendly, professional, and made sure everyone felt confident before setting off. The safety briefing was clear, informative, and well-paced, which really put us at ease. The views from the zip lines were absolutely stunning, soaring over the trees with the forest stretching out below was an unforgettable experience. The whole area is beautifully maintained; the grounds were tidy and clean, and the toilets were spotless. Parking is managed by Forestry England and cost £12, which we felt was reasonable given how well-kept the entire site is. Plus, there’s plenty more to do after your Go Ape session with walking trails, picnic areas, and other outdoor activities, you can easily make a full day of it. Highly recommend for families, friends, or anyone after a bit of adventure in a gorgeous setting!
We had the best time at Go Ape Dalby Forest! From start to finish, everything was so well organised – check-in was smooth, the facilities were spotless, and the whole place had such a great energy. The course itself was amazing, with beautiful views and just the right mix of challenge and fun. The real highlight of our visit, though, was Molly, our instructor. She was beyond brilliant – friendly, patient, and so confident in what she was doing. She made everyone feel safe and encouraged us the whole way round, adding loads of enthusiasm and laughter to the experience. You can really tell she loves what she does! Can’t recommend this place enough – an unforgettable day out in a stunning setting, run by a fantastic team. We’ll definitely be back! 🌲💚🙌
Staff were great! Well looked after, the course was challenging, lots of zip lines, challenging crossings etc. Impressive location.
A brilliant experience, set in the beautiful Dalby Forest. I thoroughly enjoyed Go Ape, the mix of climbing and obstacles over the 6 different stations provided varying levels of challenge and difficulty (where there is an extreme obstable, there is always the option to go the easier way, for less confident people). Some great, long, zip-lines between the stations, soaring over the treetops. The final zip-line has an amazing view. A great team building exercise, as was the case with my visit, helping everyone to complete the course together. Very friendly and helpful staff too. Would definitely go again.
