Tree Climbing

We've teamed up with the largest provider of recreational tree climbing in the country, The Big Tree Climbing Company to offer unique experiences in the trees at Camper Calling for the whole family. 

They will teach you how to enter a tree’s canopy using ropes, knots and karabiners, whilst being securely attached in a harness at all times. Once at the top of the tree you will gain an experience which can’t be found on the ground and if you’re feeling brave you could try some branch walking before returning safely to the ground. 

Slackline School

Learn a new skill at Camper Calling!

Balance your body and mind with instruction from a qualified Slackline instructor, he will teach you how to balance, walk along the Slackline and learn a few cool tricks as well!

Once initial training is complete use of the practice Slackline for the rest of the weekend is free.

30mins £10 for 1 person £15 for two people

Min age 6+ must be adult supervised

Please arrive 10 minutes before your time of booking for a quick safety briefing.

Silent Disco

Shh! Camper Calling’s worst kept secret IS BACK!

Head into the woods and find your voice as our DJs battle it out for crowd participation. Infamous and a heck of a lot of fun for all the family, head on in for the quietest disco in town!

Please don’t hold on to the headphones throughout the weekend. This will make it a fairer experience for everyone; Headsets will then never become low and other people can make great memories too!
These headphones have no purpose outside of this specific silent disco either…so there’s really no need to take them. Return them after your disco session so the fun can roll on!

Thank you ❤️

Adventure Play Area
