Participants can take on tree-to-tree crossings illuminated by glowing lights, with four zip line courses available. Guests can repeat the courses as often as they like within their one-hour time slot. Children aged six and over, with a minimum height of 1.2m, are welcome to join.

Sessions are available to book now at Go Ape, with prices set at £31.95 per person for all ages, including children. The experience is expected to fill up quickly, so early booking is advised.
Background on Go Ape
Go Ape opened its first location in Norfolk, England in 2002, founded by Caitlin and Tristram Mayhew. The company expanded to Scotland in 2007 at Aberfoyle in Queen Elizabeth Forest Park and now operates two other Scottish locations in Dalkeith and Peebles. Dalkeith is the only Scottish site offering the Sundown Adventure.
Social media users have shared positive reactions to the event. One wrote: "I love Go Ape in the dark!" Another said: "I did this last year and it was soooo fun." A third commented: "I loved this year. 10/10 will definitely be back again. Cute date night activity if you are looking for something a little different." Another advised: "So fun! I would recommend wearing warm clothes especially gloves because it's absolutely freezing."
