Learn how to climb 60-ft oaks at this tree climbing centre in secluded woodland and you’ll be rewarded with views across the Solent to the South Coast. Run from the home of Paul McCathie, a kiwi-born aborist “who has been climbing trees professionally for over ten years”, you’re first given a safety brief and lesson in tying knots, then you’re strapped into a harness and shown how to shinny up the beanstalk. There’s five percent discount if you arrive on foot, by bike or public transport and a percentage of the company’s profit is donated to Trees for life (www.treesforlife.org.uk), which works to restore the Caledonian Forest in the Scottish Highlands.
