Excitement for all ages
If you're a thrill seeker with nerves of steel, don't miss
Alton Towers.
One of the UK's premier theme parks, Alton Towers has rides to make even
the toughest among you scream. There is also a separate water park.
Alternatively, you can climb and swing amongst the tree tops on high
wires at
Go Ape Buxton or
Go Ape Sherwood Pines.
If that's just a bit too much for you, visit Gullliver's Kingdom at Matlock Bath, a family theme park designed to cater for families with children between the age of two and thirteen.
