Work is forging ahead on a new tree-top obstacle course at Coombe Abbey which is on track to open to the public next month.

Go Ape will officially open at the venue on April 6, giving thrill-seekers the chance to tackle the high ropes adventures and test their bravery.

The attraction, which will be based in the park, will feature The Plummet, a 12-metre free-fall vertical drop, a dual Tarzan Swing and a 200m double zip course finale.

Contractors have been busily installing platforms, rope walks and safety equipment to make sure everything is ready for the official opening.
