Overview

We had a brilliant day out at Landmark Forest Adventure Park, and while not everything is fully accessible, all of the activities are visible and in the open which makes it a great place to go with all the family. The accessible treetop trail is fantastic as well.

Transport & Parking

Big car park, but it does fill up fast. There are spaces close to the ticket office.

Access

The ticket office is stilted on a large pond and there is level access into the spacious room. Once inside, you are given a map with clear directions around the park. The map makes it look very spread out, but it's actually very compact. Also, the map gives the impression that there are stairs up to the tree top trail - this isn't the case it is step-free with an incline (not too steep). The park has two cafes (one indoor and one outdoor) which are both accessible. There are accessible toilets at each of these cafes. Many of the activities are designed for children, and family members can watch from seating points all around the park as kids climb robes and try tree top obstacle courses. There are view points from every angle so you won't miss any of the action. The Labyrinth is a boardwalk maze which is level access apart from the tree house in the centre. It's unfortunate because the tree house is the centre of the maze, but it most of the exciting bits are in the lead up to it! It's very multi-sensory, with speakers creating atmospheric noises, lots of things to look at and things to feel. The Wonderland area of the park is a little sparse but still a nice place to wander around with some optical illusions thrown in the mix. If the weather is particularly bad, you could explore the Bamboozleum which is all indoors and is full of buttons to press, optical illusions and exciting things to look at. This is joined onto the gift shop which is all level access, if a little bit on the small side. I highly recommend the treetop trail - it is a one-way route through some beautiful Cairngorm trees with wildlife clues and information boards around the trail. There is a spectacular tree with a lightning scar that you can get right up close to.

Toilets

They are well maintained but also well used - wouldn't hurt to have a few more around the park.

Staff

Lovely! They're very encouraging if you decide to try any of the more adventurous activities - especially if you find yourself stuck out of fear on a tree platform halfway around an obstacle course...

Anything else you wish to tell us?

Great day out! Thought has gone into access, but I think with time they could fill the park with more attractions that are accessible to all, particularly in the Wonderland section of the park.
