A Unique Team-Building Experience Amidst Nature's Canopy

Elevate your next corporate outing or group adventure with an unforgettable tree-climbing experience at the renowned Goodwood Estate. Set amidst a collection of majestic trees, this new offering invites participants to connect with nature, enjoy its tranquillity, and embark on a thrilling adventure – all while promoting teamwork and wellbeing.

Participants will ascend into the heart of Goodwood’s woodlands, where the enchanting beauty of the estate’s trees can be appreciated up close. As they climb, they’ll experience the powerful restorative effects of nature. Studies have shown that time spent among trees can significantly improve mental health and overall wellness, offering a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The reward for those daring enough to venture to the top is a breathtaking panoramic view – a perfect spot to reflect, brainstorm with colleagues, or simply take in the spectacular scenery.

Darren Norris, Head of Forestry at Goodwood, said “Tree climbing is not just great fun—it's a way to connect with nature and appreciate the beauty of trees. The more time people spend outdoors, respecting and understanding the importance of these towering giants, the better stewards we are of our environment. We're thrilled to expand our estate experiences with activities that honour our landscape and are delighted that a percentage of the funds will support vital tree planting and forestry projects at Goodwood, ensuring our forests are nurtured for generations to come.”

Tree climbing at Goodwood offers more than just an adrenaline rush. With a variety of activities to suit every preference, participants can enjoy team-building challenges, competitive treetop games, or the simple thrill of swinging through the branches. Whether you're looking to inspire creativity, foster collaboration, or just have some fun, this unique experience caters to everyone. And, of course, no adventure would be complete without capturing the moment with a hammock selfie high among the treetops!

Syd Howells, who will run the tree climbing sessions said “Goodwood has such a unique and fascinating past, present and future. For me, the amazing trees on the estate drive the landscape through the changing seasons. I am thrilled to help visitors share the joy, wonder, and adventure of safely climbing trees at Goodwood and experience life from their unique perspective.”

The Goodwood Estate is dedicated to protecting the natural surroundings, and a portion of funds from every booking will go towards its ongoing tree-planting projects, ensuring that the estate’s woodlands continue to thrive for generations to come.
