Discover the Challenge of Climbing Trees

This activity is similar to a climbing wall, but we use giant beech trees. Utilising climbing holds, the objective is to climb as high up the tree as possible. This physical and mental challenge of climbing up into the tree canopy is rewarded with a sense of achievement and an amazing alternative view of the surrounding woodland, with your peers below cheering you on.

Why Try Climbing Trees?

• Boost your confidence: This activity is perfect for preparing you for even more high rope adventures at Outdoor Elements.
• Climbing Trees is more than just a physical challenge; it’s an opportunity to step out of your comfort zone.
• Develop strength and climbing skills you didn’t realise you had.
• Enjoy your whole group’s encouragement to climb higher.
• Embrace your inner squirrel and soak up the incredible views from the canopy above!

What to Expect from a Climbing Trees Session

Challenge yourself with an unforgettable outdoor experience. Climbing Trees at Outdoor Elements offers two exhilarating climbing challenges set in the heart of our stunning 7-acre woodland in Simonstone.

Mature Beech trees host the climbs, each climb taking you up to 14 metres above the forest floor.

Safety is our priority. You’ll be securely harnessed and supported by your group, with our experienced instructor guiding you every step of the way. Climb as high as you’re comfortable, and once you reach your own summit, sit back in the harness and enjoy a stylish descent as you’re gently lowered to the forest floor.

Whether you’re an adventure seeker or new to climbing, our trees promise excitement for everyone aged 8 and above! Try both trees and see how high you can climb! Squeeze the duck!
