Go Ape is encouraging Scots to think twice about traditional stocking staples and consider the gift of an unforgettable experience this Christmas.
The gift of adventure, allows you to dare a fellow primate to unleash their inner Tarzan by flying down zip wires and tackling obstacles and rope crossings, whilst enjoying some of Scotland’s most breath-taking scenery. It’s also a great way to start 2019 off with an exciting trip that will leave you with lifelong memories – guaranteed to beat even the most colourful of socks – as well as reaping the numerous benefits associated with time outdoors.
With vouchers starting from as little as £10, Go Ape has something for everyone, even the colleague you’ve still to draw for secret Santa.
This year, Go Ape is also offering the chance to gift an experience with bundles available in denominations of £30 – perfect for the person that has everything or for the relative that wants a surprise – zipping through the trees is sure to guarantee that!
Go Ape’s digital vouchers are also delivered instantly, making it the perfect option for the last-minute shopper who thought their only option was chocolates from the local petrol station!
There are 3 unique Go Ape courses located across Scotland, each featuring a tree top adventure that will guarantee adventure in 2018:
Go Ape Aberfoyle in Stirlingshire, located in Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, is home to two of Britain’s longest zip wires, each stretching over 400m long, flying people 150 feet above the ground and over a 90 foot waterfall.
Go Ape Peebles is built on a hillside within the striking Glentress Forest and takes advantage of the valley for some jaw-dropping exposure which challenges the laws of gravity thanks to the country’s highest zip wire which is 160 feet high!
Go Ape Crathes Castle in Aberdeenshire is located in the landmark grounds of the 16th century castle. With turrets and towers, winding staircases and ancient sculpted yew trees; historic Crathes Castle’s 595 acre estate offers a fantastic day out.
