Summer Adventures
Perrygrove Railway
Go Ape
For those adrenaline junkies, Go Ape is the perfect place to visit during your visit to The Forest of Dean.
With two locations to choose from, there is so much to do!
Beechenhurst
Here you will find the Treetop adventure where there are entry level high ropes, great for ages 4-6! Also, for ages 6-10 you will find the Treetop adventure plus, that also includes a zipline – Exciting right?!!!
Once finished in the Treetops head to the Beechenhurst visitors lodge for a coffee and cake and then head out on foot and explore all the beautiful forest has to offer. The Sculpture trail is our favourite!
Mallards Pike
Here you will find the treetop challenge, suitable for over 10s. Here you will put your bravery to the test and like the Treetop Adventure at Beechenhurst, there is an exhilarating zip wire, but longer!
However, if Treetops is not your thing, hop on one of the all-terrain segways and explore the forest from the ground. You may even get to see some of the incredible wildlife that is bustling in the Forest of Dean. What ever you adventure preference may be, Go Ape – The Forest Of Dean has it all.
