Summer of Play: Teddy bear zip wire
See your favourite cuddly bear flying down a zip wire as part of our jam-packed Summer of Play.
Would your teddy bear enjoy a day out at Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal with you? As part of our Summer of Play, we're planning a special event just for them. See your favourite cuddly bear flying down the zip wire and through the trees before safely landing next to the abbey ready to join us for a special teddy bears picnic.
Drop your teddy off with the zip wire instructors just past Swanley Grange before racing down to the abbey ruins and watching them zip through the trees. Our volunteers will be waiting at the bottom of the zip wire to unclip your teddy and return them safely to you and give your bear a certificate for being super brave.
Bring a picnic, borrow a blanket and take a seat on West Green to watch other teddy bears zip through the trees and hear all about their exciting adventures.
This activity is free but you must book your space. There are 11 sessions running on each day and 4 teddy bear spaces available in each session.
Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.
Please note:
