GO APE –<br />

RIVINGTON<br />

Rivington’s rugged hills, picturesque reservoirs, terraced<br />

gardens and woodland bustling with wildlife has been<br />

a major attraction for visitors for over a hundred years,<br />

but the addition of Go Ape has given the location added<br />

impetus for adrenaline junkies.<br />

Go Ape Rivington nestles high up in this open and<br />

spacious site, and with the 13-metre-high platforms<br />

and a free-falling Tarzan Swing, this is the only Go Ape<br />

location in the UK to feature a zip wire over water!<br />

And once you’ve landed back on terra firma, you can<br />

explore the terraced gardens with its hidden paths,<br />

caves, structures and lakes, climb the Pike (or Winter<br />

Hill) or head over to the Great House Barn and Tearoom<br />

for some refreshments.<br />
