As we reflect on an incredible 2025, there’s one thing that stands out more than the 40-foot crossings and 1,000-foot ziplines: the stories you share with us. We’ve seen first-time explorers find their courage and try something new, families looking for screen-free activities find the canopy – and the Go Ape Squad has been busier than ever this year!
We’ve combed through your Go Ape Google reviews and your internal feedback from our locations across the U.S. to bring you a collection of our favorite moments. These reviews capture the heart of what it means to live life adventurously:

Each one delivered breathtaking views and pure adrenaline.” — Jane
