The new course, within the Surrey theme park, includes a Tree Top Junior course for little ones, open now, and the Tree Top Adventure for older children and adults, which opens from 16 July.

Go Ape has been operating in the UK for more than ten years, offering treetop adventures, Segway tours and zip-wire thrills. The Club’s Senior Technical Advisor Iain Geddes reported on the opening of the 29th Go Ape course, at Tilgate Park in West Sussex. You can watch a video of his Go Ape experience here.

Tristram Mayhew, from Go Ape, said: “60 Acre Wood at Chessington World of Adventures Resort is a beautiful hidden gem and a natural habitat for our latest tree top adventures.”

The Club’s Site at Walton on Thames is less than five miles from the new course.
