Children's Activities

Zipline

Children can fly through the air on our fantastic zip wire, brought to Kew this year by outdoor experts Go Ape.

Hugely fun and exciting, this is certainly the festival highlight for children. Go Ape is an award-winning high wire forest adventure, and their staff have kindly given up their weekend to provide their expertise at Kew. This year there are TWO ziplines - bringing double the fun!

The zipline is open 9.30am-5.30pm on each day of the festival.
