Go Ape Bedgebury

About

Located close to Royal Tunbridge Wells, just off the B2079, Bedgebury Pinetum is an award-winning visitor attraction. We're nestled in the heart of it. And, our three high ropes courses sit proudly amongst an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Tackle tricky crossings, fly down speedy ziplines and navigate yourself around the forest canopy. If you're looking for an action-packed day out in Kent, Go Ape Bedgebury comes 'highly' recommended.

Treetop Adventure
An action-packed one-hour introduction to high ropes life. Go Ape Treetop Adventure is jam-packed experience 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. For those over a metre tall.

Treetop Adventure Plus
An empowering 60-minute aerial venture. Treetop Adventure Plus 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. It’s for those craving more – more freedom. More height. More thrill. A high ropes activity designed for families with older children in mind. This one hits the feel-good factor every time.

Treetop Challenge
An exhilarating self-guided 2-3 hour experience through the forest canopy. After a detailed safety brief from one of our qualified instructors you’ll be tackling tricky crossings, climbing up “Fisherman’s Traps” and riding high-speed ziplines. Designed for young couples, friends and families with kids over the age of 10 - we're one of Kent’s best outdoor activities. Grown-up fun in the great outdoors.
