Looking for a fun outdoor activity this Halloween with your family near Keswick? Take on the Halloween Potion Hunt, a 'spell-tacular' addition to Go Ape Whinlatter Forest's Treetop and Nets Adventures. Combining high ropes crossings, zip wires and a seasonal trail, this special event adds an extra twist to the Treetop Adventure and Treetop Adventure Plus courses.
The Woodland Wizard is in need of your help – he's dropped his cauldron whilst flying over the trees and his potion ingredients are stuck in the branches. He needs to you climb up and help him find the ingredients for his secret Halloween potion recipe. Work together to find them all and solve the puzzle to earn a magical prize at the end.
It's a great way to get outdoors during the school holidays, with plenty of climbing, balancing and zip-lining to keep the whole family entertained.
The Halloween Potion Hunt runs for a limited time between 24 October and 1 November and is available as an optional add-on to Treetop Adventure and Treetop Adventure Plus experiences.
