Location

If you’ve already smashed our Treetop Adventure course but aren’t quite ready for Treetop Challenge, Adventure+ is the activity for you.
Adventure Plus is just that, an additional standalone section on top of our existing Treetop Adventure course. It is higher (9 metres at the highest point) and winds its way over the play area out into the forest to finish with an epic 100-metre-long zip wire.
There are some more challenging crossings which is why, even if you’ve been before, we get you to do loops 1 and 2 of the Treetop Adventure course first just to make sure you’re warmed up and ready for the next bit. Once completed, the next step is to clamber up through the wooden Fisherman’s Trap. You’ll have to crawl through the suspended Net Tunnel and cling on to the climbing holds to traverse the Prisoners Crossing to name a few.
The perfect family activity day out for those aged 6+ (and over 1.2m tall).
