  • There’s an incredibly high risk of friction burns using these slides. To minimise the risk please wear (minimum) a t-shirt, tucked in on all sides (no vest tops), knee length shorts and a pair of socks. We have signage around this attraction to indicate this.
  • Our staff try to watch for inappropriate clothing worn, they will not allow you to use the slides if they deem clothing inappropriate. However, for riding the slides, we advise that long sleeved tops, tucked in on all sides, trousers and socks are worn.
  • It is the Parent/Guardians responsibility to make sure the children or adults in your care are wearing the correct clothing for this area.
  • You must wear socks at all times on the slides and in the climbing frame area.
  • Thin clothing may burn through causing friction burns.

It is important to wash your hands often during your visit to Knockhatch Adventure Park, especially:

  • when you get to Knockhatch Adventure Park or arrive home
  • after you blow your nose, cough or sneeze
  • before you eat or handle food
  • after you touch any of the animals

You should wash your hands for 20 seconds, using soap and water or use the hand sanitiser stations around the Park.
