Tbf. I was a bit unsure beforehand but its great, so well organised & Josh was thorough in his delivery of the rules & regs. So basically a 10 yr, 59yr & a 64yr old had a blast. Even if the oldie at 6'3" is a difficult duck under the ropes 🤣🤣 · via Google [Charlie Hurst](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/109089233079617973789/reviews) ★★★★★ We had the best time at Go Ape. First time. Ellie was amazing at the instructions and safety side plus very polite and positive. We had an amazing time. Zip lines and the course itself was great. Definitely come again ! · via Google [Jack Mellor](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/100780443941026834978/reviews) ★★★★★ Brilliant couple of hours in the trees! 🌳 Adam and Ashan looked after a large group of us, very thorough safety briefing and then left to your own devices. Good fun, would come again. · via Google [bring me the beanie](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/110974914325094844042/reviews) ★★★★★ The place was awesome, was quite busy as we came on a Saturday afternoon. But the staff were great, the courses were great with some stunning views. Great day out. Overall took about 2 hours to complete, even though we booked the 60 minute experience. Unfortunately didn't get time to go on number 3 again (definitely our favourite!) · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x487b096474e9f8db:0x715facfcd502745a!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** Rivington Lane, Horwich, Bolton, BL6 7SB [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=53.6195897%2C-2.5641343) **Category** High Ropes & Aerial Trails **Guest rating** 4.7 / 5 (1,179 reviews) **Suitable for** Ages 10+ **Suggested visit** 2-3 hours **Setting** Outdoor **Destination** Bolton [More attractions in Bolton](https://staycation.co.uk/bolton/attractions) ★ 4.7 (1,179 reviews) [Visit official website](https://goape.co.uk/locations/rivington?utm_source=DOWTK&utm_medium=partner&utm_campaign=standard&utm_content=partner) [01603895500](tel:01603895500) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Bolton **Postcode** BL6 7SB **Payment** Cards, Contactless **Plus Code** 9C5VJC9P+R8 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x487b096474e9f8db:0x715facfcd502745a!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487b096474e9f8db:0x715facfcd502745a!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x487b096474e9f8db:0x715facfcd502745a!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Bolton Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
