Go Ape runs outdoor adventures at about 36 UK forest and park sites, from high ropes and zip lines to Forest Segway, axe throwing and archery tag.
You pay per person in GBP, and high ropes prices drop on quieter days and climb at peak times, so the day you book can move the price more than a code.
Go Ape began when Rebecca and Tristram Mayhew saw families climbing through the trees on a trip to France and brought the idea back to Britain, opening the first site in Thetford Forest in 2002. In 2021 the founders moved 90% of the business into employee ownership, so full-time and seasonal staff share in it, and the company supports the Campaign for Adventure and runs the Go Ape Foundation.
Its high ropes come in levels: Treetop Challenge is the original course for ages 10 and up, while Treetop Adventure suits younger climbers over 1m tall, and Nets Adventure suspends giant bouncy nets 30 feet up. Sundown sessions run after dark, and Go Ape hosts school trips, corporate days, youth groups, home education visits, birthday parties and hen or stag groups, with an annual pass for regular visitors.
Does Go Ape have a student discount?
Yes. 10% off through Student Beans on Treetop Challenge, Challenge Plus and Forest Segway, and it won't combine with other discounts.
More about shopping at Go Ape
What you can book
High ropes and zip lines, Nets Adventure, Forest Segway, axe throwing, archery tag and escape rooms across about 36 UK sites.
How pricing works
Prices are per person, high ropes cost more at peak times, and every booking carries a non-refundable booking fee.
Cancelling
Up to 7 days out you get a full refund minus the booking fee; from 7 days to 48 hours, moving the date costs £5.
Bad weather
If Go Ape closes a site for unsafe weather, you get a refund, a credit note or a new date.
Gift vouchers
Money or experience vouchers by email or post (£4.95 by post), valid 12 months, and several can cover one booking.
Accessibility
Carers who don't take part go free, and a 10% discount applies when a supervising adult must join in, booked by phone.
Go Ape's checkout page has a box labelled 'Discount code or Voucher', and gift voucher numbers go into that same box as codes.
Keep every voucher number to hand before you pick a slot, since several can sit on one booking.
The Student Beans 10% is the one that stands alone: it can't share a booking with a gift voucher or another offer, so work out which saves more firSt. Book at least 7 days ahead if plans might change.
Inside that window the money isn't refundable, and within 48 hours of the activity the date can't be moved either.
If your Go Ape code doesn't work
Combining offers: The student discount cannot be used with other discounts, offers or gift vouchers.

Pairing activities helps too: £10 comes off two activities booked on the same day, and Treetop Challenge plus Axe Throwing comes to £45 per person.
Team days for 10 to 300 people get group discounts on enquiry, and school trips start from £15 per pupil.
