Slide through the trees in a donut ring at Heaton Park, with a full hour of unlimited rides on two sweeping woodland routes. Take a ring solo or share the fun, then head back for another run among the forest.
Arrive 30 minutes early to check in and meet the team at the slide area. An instructor will help choose your donut ring, explain the seated position and make sure you are ready for your first run.
Start with the 77m route, banking through bends and gentle hops under the trees. At the bottom, bring your ring to the conveyor and return to the starting point for another go.
Switch to the 88m slide for a longer twisting descent, then alternate between the two during your hour. Return your ring at the end and enjoy the park surroundings at your own pace.
Heaton Park is a large green space north of central Manchester, with woodland and open parkland providing a welcome outdoor setting. The forest slide routes make the most of this natural backdrop.
Bus, tram and road links make the park straightforward to reach from Greater Manchester. There is room to extend the adventure into a wider family day in the park.
Participants must be at least 4, at least 1m tall and weigh from 20kg to 120kg. Shared rings must stay within the 120kg combined limit, and each participant must be able to walk independently.
Children aged 4 to 6 need one participating adult for every two children, while ages 7 to 11 need one adult for every three children. Closed, flat shoes are essential, and loose scarves or facial jewellery are not suitable.
Two distinct slides and unlimited runs let each group set its own pace, whether you are sharing rings or racing down solo. The straightforward format suits first timers while still delivering plenty of repeat fun.
Instructors make the set up clear before you start and the conveyor helps keep the session flowing. The wooded location gives this simple outdoor activity a setting that feels far from the city.
Meet at Heaton Park, Manchester, M25 2GT and check in around 30 minutes before your session. Follow the site's signs from reception to the tubing area.
Nearby parking and public transport serve the park. Allow extra time at busy periods and follow the local parking guidance on arrival.
Your tubing session lasts one hour, with time for unlimited rides on both woodland slides. Arrive around 30 minutes early to check in and get to the slide area before the session starts.
The open format lets you choose how often to ride each route. Use the session to alternate between the 77m and 88m slides at a pace that suits your group.
Participants must be at least four years old. Every rider must also meet the height and weight requirements so that the donut rings can be used safely.
Parents and guardians should consider whether younger children are comfortable with an active outdoor slide activity. The team explains the riding position and safety rules before anyone begins.
You must be at least 1m tall and weigh between 20kg and 120kg. These limits apply to the tubing activity and help ensure the rings and slides operate as intended.

The instructor helps your group choose a suitable ring and explains the correct seated position. Follow their guidance every time you set off down a slide.
Wear warm outdoor clothing and closed, flat shoes that stay secure while walking around the activity area. Layers are useful because the experience takes place outdoors in the park.
Avoid loose scarves or facial jewellery that could interfere with the ride. Choose clothes that are comfortable for sitting in the ring and moving between runs.
Check in around 30 minutes before the session and follow the signs to the forest tubing area. An instructor introduces the slides, helps select your donut ring and explains how to sit and hold on safely.

Children aged four to six need one participating adult for every two children. Children aged seven to eleven need one participating adult for every three children.
These ratios help younger riders stay supported in the activity area. Accompanying adults should follow the instructor's directions and remain with their group throughout the session.
Yes, the one-hour session includes unlimited rides on both routes. You can try the 77m slide, then move to the longer 88m route and return to either one as often as you like.
The conveyor helps bring the rings back towards the starting point after each ride. Take turns considerately and follow the on-site instructions when moving between the slides.
Forest Tubing is an outdoor activity and can be mildly affected by weather conditions. The team monitors the site to make sure the slides can operate safely.
