Local Tips
Go Ape can get busy, especially on weekends and holidays. Booking your adventure in advance ensures you get your preferred time slot. If you move fast, we recommend getting in early when there are fewer guests on the course.
Plan for the weather! Check the forecast and dress appropriately for your Go Ape adventure. Remember, Go Ape operates in most weather conditions, so be prepared for rain or shine. If the temperatures are high, wear light-colored, loose-fitting, moisture-wicking clothing and sunscreen. If it’s cool, wear layers that can be easily removed if needed.
Eat a protein-rich meal and stay hydrated the day before and of your reservation. Go Ape is a physically active activity, and you’ll want to be hydrated and have stable blood sugar to stay safe!
Water is available throughout your adventure and additional drinks are available for purchase, such as Sports drinks. Bring athletic gloves (or purchase at site), sunscreen, bug spray, and any medical necessities you have, such as epipens, if needed. We do not recommend bringing anything that can fall into the forest, such as hats and sunglasses. Leave your belongings at home or in your car; we can keep hold of your car keys. Phones can be brought into the trees if they are securely attached to you. Phone holders are available for purchase at site.
Make the most of your visit by combining your Go Ape adventure with other local activities. Discounts are available for Axe Throwing, Forest Escape, Gorilla Golf and more when purchased with a treetop activity.
