The Low Ropes course was officially opened by Bear Grylls in 2018. A few changes have been made since then including a faster zip wire. The course is great fun and a firm favourite with lots of groups, it consists of cargo net, balancing beams, logs steps and ends with a zip wire.
Low Ropes is a self-led activity. Helmets and risk assessments are provided. Please ensure that one of your Leadership team is designated activity lead and has read the risk assessment and is present for the duration of the session. Where participants are very young or may need extra help, to get the most out of the session, it is recommended that additional Leaders attend the session to assist.
