go ape at bracknell

Both my partner and I really enjoyed our Go Ape experience in Bracknell. The staff is good, the equipment of good quality and the 5 trails get increasingly challenging. Only let down: not enough trails, we were done after just over an hour.

Been here twice now most recently with my boyfriend last Easter. It was half term and parking was a nightmare, I would suggest arriving well before your slot to park as there are other things going on in the forest and therefore it's always really busy. The staff were really helpful and friendly and they do well in making sure you are comfortable. You have a very brief induction with staff and then left to explore the treetops on your own. It was fantastic, me and my boyfriend didn't stop laughing all day. I didn't complete the course (there are 5 sections to complete) the first time that I went so I was really proud when I did it this time. There are no time limits so you can go at your own pace. I would suggest bringing gloves with you when you go as your hands get really cold and sore from handling the metal and ropes all day or they have some for sale there for £4. Would highly recommend this for a day out and would love to do it all over again.

I went here with two teenage girls, we really enjoyed it. I would say it is better to go with an adult for each child of your child has not been before or is a little nervous. Listen careful to the instructions at the beginning.

Took the kids and whilst they enjoyed it I had a scream. Haven't done anything like that in years, not since school. Think the pre booked slots work well and price wise OK

Visited here with my mate. Wasn't quite sure what to expect but thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. Shame it was over so quickly. Definitely would recommend wrapping up as it does get quite cold whilst up in the trees!

Great fun, is worth the money, approximately 2 and a half hours of laughter. We went as a family with 13 and 11 years old kids and they loved it. You have to be reasonable fit to complete the course and not be scared of heights, but you are hooked on all the time so very safe. I would definitely recommend!

Went here with my three sons ,11,13,21 we all had great fun on them for over 1 hour. If you do as per instructions at the beginning you will have a great time. My youngest was showing off on his in front of some walkers which resulted in a 3 way segway pile up no damage to us or segways. I did come at the end through not paying attention ended up with me flying through the air and turning the segway over on top of me to the amusement and mine after I brushed myself down.

I booked this for my Boyfriend's birthday as a surprise, and he loved it! It was something completely different, a new and exciting experience! Every member of staff was lovely, and very patient with us (particularly Emily!) - so thank you all for that! Would highly recommend this to anyone who fancies something adventurous - would definitely encourage people to pick the extreme routes as well! :) thanks for a great afternoon guys! Amy & Rich.

I've been to go ape here before (about 10 years ago when it first opened). I don't remember paying this much. So I was totally and utterly shocked to see the price for a session at £32. Had planned on going here on a mid-week morning with my wife (no kids) but couldn't justify the expense. Despite being a mid-week morning with full availability and poor weather surely some kind of dispensation is in order. Go ape you need to learn the concept of price elasticity of demand. Had this been £15 each we'd have done it but it's just way way too dear in my opinion.

Staff were excellent very informative and helpful. Had a brilliant few hours going around the treetop adventure, would definately recommend

It takes around 20-30mins training 2:30 hrs of awesome climbing and scenery it's good for everyone. There are many different obstacles to climb so you will not go home felling like you've wasted loads of money!some people need to get rescued. If you are scared of heights then it may be a problem as the highest point is 13m. Also if you don't like wobbly surfaces then I wouldn't do it. However great time in the zip wire for anyone

We received 15-20mins of training on the equipment and a taste of what was to come then we we're let loose without an instructor! The corse took myself and 10yr old son about 2 hrs to complete and was as challenging as I expected - not being great with heights!! I felt a lot safer with the harness than I thought I would and instructors were wandering around the course at all times in case we needed them. All in all I had a fantastic time and so did my son, we weren't hurried along although maybe if we'd gone at a busier time it may have been different! Brilliant morning in the forest, well recommended!

I took my 17 year old nephew to Go Ape and it turned out to be the highlight of his holiday. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly and made you feel at ease. Full training is given and you feel very secure with the harness system. The system of 5 different stations means that you can opt out at any time if you think the activities are too challenging. We had an enjoyable afternoon and felt good at the end that we had been well and truly outside our normal comfort zone.

Decided to try out the Segway experience for a bit of fun and we were not disappointed. Had a brilliant time. The staff are friendly and although they are strict about health and safety with all the other walkers, cyclists etc around, after seeing how we managed to control our segways (following a short introduction and some practice) we had a great time going round some intermediate tracks and then they increased the speed and we went for a much longer ride out to see the amazing scenery. Wasn't sure what to expect when I booked it, but thoroughly enjoyed it and so did the two teenagers with us. Remember to bring change for the car park and allow plenty of time to find parking if you are turning up on a sunny weekend as it's a bit chaotic since the site is shared with The LookOut and people having picnics, family walks and so on. Definitely recommended though!

My Dad and I have been to this Go Ape and the one in Black Park. This one has a brand new course which includes a double Tarzan swing! It's a bit expensive, but totally worth it for a fun activity! Staff are very friendly and the whole facility is well maintained. They offer a Segway experience which is also worth a go as it is really fun. You will also have to pay for parking, which can be easy to forget if you are focusing on getting to the site. You can leave your valuables, bags ect. at the kiosk, which is very useful as you will at heights. Really fun activity, bit expensive, but well worth it!
