Go Ape treetop challenge

Seven members of the Adventure Group met at 11:30 am for our check in and safety briefing at the Go Ape Cabin.

Some had been to Go Ape before but others were complete newbies!

Once we had received our safety briefing from one of the trained instructors and given our clips and harnesses we had a couple of trial run crossings before we headed off to our Treetop Challenge.

The course was full of interesting challenges climbing up rope ladders on to the platforms and crossing over wobbly bridges or stepping platforms.

It was absolutely essential to keep focused and stay clipped on all the way round for our safety.  I am happy to report no mishaps whilst we were there though some of us needed a little help from our friendly instructor Tobin once or twice to get us on our way.

The zip wires were super exciting with wonderful views of the treetops and forest.  This was an amazing experience which pushed everyone out of their comfort zone!  It did for me!
