About

Join us on the Treetop Nets of Zip World Manchester this festive season, where the Grumpy Grotto awaits!

This family-friendly Christmas quest will see you leaping, running and exploring the huge treetop bouncy nets, whilst sneaking into the Grumpy Grotto to steal back Christmas from the infamous Grump!

Grump's Grotto Gift Grab!

The Grump will be patrolling his stash of gifts in the treetop grotto, and it's your job to recover them and replace them with lumps of coal whilst he's not looking. Embark on this exciting, hour-long festive quest and receive a gift of your own at the end of the adventure - after all, saving the holiday spirit is hard work!

Festive Fun in the Forest!

Located in Heaton Park, and a quick tram ride from Manchester city centre, this family Christmas adventure is perfect for kids over the age of 3, and is a wonderful alternative to a traditional Santa's Grotto, where your little ones get the chance to burn off plenty of energy and enjoy a shared experience in the great outdoors!

Restrictions

Children aged 5 - 17 require 1 spectating adult required. Participation is encouraged but optional.
