Extreeme Adventure is a high ropes course, built in some of the tallest trees in Eastern England, in the beautiful "New Wood", part of the Weasenham Woods, Norfolk.
Hours of adrenaline rushing family fun (must be 10 years of age plus) which takes aerial trekking to new extremes. Swing, climb and jump at 20ft or 40ft for the more adventurous! High up in the trees there are over 20 different elements to conquer. In addition there is a 3G swing, a 80ft fan descender jump and a 1,000ft zip wire, both respectively thought to be Britain’s highest and longest!
This listing is for a group of 4 to join us for a complete Extreeme package.

The Extreeme Adventure high ropes and tall trees course is set at two different heights - low ropes at 20ft. and high ropes at 40ft. for the more extreme participant.
In addition there is a 3G swing, a 1,000ft zip wire and an 85ft fan descender jump.
High Ropes Course
There are 11 elements at this level including:
* Postmans Walk (tight rope with hand rope)
* Islands in the Sky (hanging/swinging platforms)
* Wind Chimes (hanging vertical logs)
* Zip Wire into Scramble Net
40t High Ropes at Extreeme Adventure
There are 7 elements at this level including:
* Burma Bridge - V shaped rope bridge through oak tree
* Multi Vines - Tight rope with hanging vines to hang on to
* 300ft. zip wire to 3G swing
Extreeme Adventure High Ropes Course Extra Elements
* 3G swing - an exhilarating ride for any participant who wants to experience the g-force effect. The swing can take 3 people at a time and is winched up to a maximum height of 45ft and one of the participants then releases it into a massive swing.
* 1,000ft zip wire and or an 80ft fan descender jump - a platform 80ft up a massive Grand Fir, which itself is over 150ft high, gives the braver participants the thrill of flying down a 1,000ft zip wire and or dropping on a fan descender in a controlled vertical jump (this is similar, but much higher, than the fan descenders used by the armed forces for parachute training). Respectively the zip wire and fan descender are thought to be Britain’s longest and highest.
The Woodland Walk
The Woods are unique in England for their combination of beauty, number of species, ecological sophistication, sustainable forestry management and commercial viability.
You will walk under the canopy of some of the oldest trees in the wood, some of which are over 250 years old and reaching heights of 100 feet. The younger second and third generation trees are 70-110 years old and many of them are now between 120 and 140 feet in height, most of them being self-sown.

Other
We are on the A1065 8 miles North of Swaffham and 8 miles South of Fakenham. Large signs on the A1065 in the Weasenham Woods indicate the turning off the main road. The car park is only 400 yards from the crossroads.
Other
* Minimum age: 10 years. Under 18's must be accompanied by a participating adult with a maximum of 3 under 18's per adult. Accompanying adults will be required to sign a disclaimer for their group.
* Minimum height: 1.40 metres (4ft 7 inches) - average height of a 10 year old.
* Maximum weight: 130 kg (20.5 stone).
* A reasonable level of fitness and strength is required as the course is challenging.
Dress
* Participants should wear long sleeves and trousers.
* Practical footwear is essential - trainers or ankle supporting boots are ideal.
* Every participant is fitted with a safety harness, which includes a chest harness and a helmet. Helmets are colour coded to easily identify under 18's (blue), adults (red) and instructors (white).
Other
* Fully trained instructors (all CRB checked) give all participants initial instruction on our training course, situated by the pavillion. This includes familiarisation with the safety harness and ancillary equipment as well as how to attach oneself to the safety wires of the ropes course.
* Zip Wires. The 300 and 1,000ft zip wires are both very fast. In both cases an instructor is at the start of the zip wire to ensure that the participant is attached correctly. The participant ends up about 10ft above the ground and then uses a descending device, called a "Grigri" to control their descent to the ground, under the supervision of another instructor.
* The "Grand Fir" 80ft platform. This takes 3 instructors to operate. One at the base of the tree to operate the electric winch and ensure that the participant is correctly secured for the ascent; one on the 80ft platform to ensure that the participant is secured correctly to either the fan descender or the 1,000ft zip wire. The third instructor is at the end of the 1,000 ft. zip wire to ensure a safe descent to the ground.
