Go Ape Whinlatter

Highest Go Ape in the country plus NEW Forest Segways It's so high you can see all the way to Scotland. Enjoy a Tree Top Adventure with us in our beautiful forest, riding zip slides through skies, over water and in England's only true mountain forest. We're sure you'll love the spectacular views of the Lake District. Swinging through the canopy, wiping out at the bottom of zip wires and going on an adventure brings people together like nothing else we've ever seen. It really does. We'll brief you for safety before you fly down our zip-wires, leap off our Tarzan Swing and tackle our crossings whilst enjoying some of Britain's most breathtaking scenery. And you can get off road and enjoy our epic forest adventure with Go Ape Forest Segway - an awesome segway experience in the Lakes with a down to earth twist. A great idea for a day out in the North Lakes (and home to Bassenthwaite ospreys), this is Go Ape at its most untamed.

Braithwaite General Store

Reviewed By dawn54goodcook14 - Hartlepool, United Kingdom

Lovely little village shop, everything you need, we arrived on the Thursday, just needed something for tea, got lovely gluten free sausages for my husband as he has coeliac, and a vegetarian option for my daughter, very nice lady who comes from the same area as us! Lovely little jams and marmalade’s to take home for friends. We will be back. Thank you.

Whinlatter Forest Park

Reviewed By 966lindag - Selkirk, United Kingdom

We went as a group of twelve - age range 11 months to 64 years and with a range of fitness levels. All had a great day out. We parked in the car park and visited three times in a week. Surprisingly, Wednesday was the busiest day by a long way! Some cycled the mountain bike tracks with two hiring bikes from the shop there, others walked the hiking tracks and the baby was pushed round the Zog trail by Granny! Siskins cafe is great and the outside is a lovely place to sit in the sun and recuperate with a coffee and tray bake. The adventure playground is large and spread out so doesn't feel too busy. No-one did the Go Ape this trip but it looked exciting. The views are stunning and we were blessed with a dry week. You need to be dressed for the weather and the activities but most folk I saw seemed to know what they were coming to. There is a local bus comes in if you do not have a car. A really excellet facility and well run.
