The amazing jungle park in the middle of Leeds that families cannot stop raving about

This amazing jungle park in the middle of Leeds lets you unleash your inner Tarzan and explore the great outdoors from the top of the trees.

The adventure-activity venue, Go Ape, is situated in Temple Newsam, Leeds, within an estate grounds that is home to beautiful woodlands.

It is the first high ropes experience in West Yorkshire and has three aerial adventures to choose from - with each having a different difficulty level, making the course accessible for thrill-seekers of any age.

For those really ready to embrace the adventure, there’s the Tarzan Swing, a tree-to-tree zip wire that has a free-falling plummet.

Or, for those who would rather stay on their feet, there is the Treetop Adventure+.

On this course there are a number of different options available - so it’s down to the explorer how far out of the realms of their comfort zone they’re willing to push themselves.

And for children, there is the Adventure Course, which is the perfect way to introduce them to a tree climbing experience - there are tree-to-tree crossings and a selection of zips to choose from.

The course even caters for those who may be a little apprehensive, as it has a permanent belay in place.

Once you’ve been hooked on, it remains on for the duration of the adventure, and the explorer can concentrate on having a good time.

In addition to the amazing activities, the course is on the grounds where a magnificent Tudor-Jacobean manor house also sits - that makes for a breathtaking sight.

And if you want to finish off your adventure with a bite to eat, there’s options to enjoy a picnic in the garden or a Tea Rooms selling a selection of treats.

For those that have already visited the Go Ape venue, they only have praise for the brilliant family day out.

On TripAdvisor the venue has an abundance of five-star reviews.

One person wrote: “Amazing!!

“I have been to the Dalby forest go ape so thought would try the Leeds one this one is amazing with so many new challenges and the bungee jump at the end is so scary but brilliant.

“Definitely worth a trip here.”

A second agreed and said: “We went on the the treetop adventure with our 9 and 6 year old daughters.

“We all had a great time and it was just the right balance of challenging and exciting for the children, without being too scary! Would definitely go again and possibly the treetop adventure+ next time.”
