Editorial, never paid. How the Dad Score works
Go Ape strings rope bridges, obstacles, Tarzan swings and long ziplines high through the forest canopy, taking two to three hours to complete. You clip into a continuous safety line and work your way up through harder sections at your own pace. Locations sit in forests across many US states, from Virginia to Kansas City.
Why it works for a dad and child
One adult supervises up to two older kids, so you are up in the trees together coaxing each other across the wobbly bits. The shared nerve and the cheer at the bottom of a zipline stick with you.
