Treetop Adventures Ltd are holding a public information event on Wednesday 5th November 2025 at The Lodge Business and Cultural Centre, 1 Dublin Road, Castlewellan, BT31 9AG, from 5pm to 8pm. This is a ‘drop-in’ event so you can visit anytime during that period.

A subsequent event is planned on Wednesday 7th January 2026, again at The Lodge from 5pm to 8pm. This will provide an opportunity to view updated plans before the planning application is lodged.
