Edinburgh gets 'world's longest inflatable obstacle course' this summer

A huge inflatable obstacle course thought to be the longest in the world is returning to Edinburgh this summer.

Dubbed the Tartan Titan, it features 600m of inflatable fun for families and is set to open at Conifox Adventure Park at Kirkliston on Saturday (July 1) kids and adults alike able to take on the blow-up obstacle course which was certified as the longest in the world by Guinness World Records in 2022.

The 600m course is longer than eight Boeing 747 aeroplanes laid nose-to-tip and is packed with 50 imaginative obstacles inspired by popular gameshows like Ninja Warrior, Total Wipeout and Gladiator.

People taking on the course can climb, crawl, jump and bounce their way to glory along the Tartan Titan.

90-minute sessions will run from Friday – Sunday, with the course taking around 30 minutes to complete.

A slot specifically for families with children under 10 will run on Saturdays and Sundays at 11.30 am, followed by adults-only sessions at 3.30 pm in the afternoon.

Food trucks will also be on-site over the weekend so participants can refuel with top food, drinks and ice creams after they have taken on the course or while cheering on family and friends.

The popular attraction launched at Conifox for the first time in 2022 and saw almost 10,000 visitors in 10 days over the summer.

The Tartan Titan is open Friday - Sunday, 9.30 am – 3.30 pm until 13 August 2023.

Tickets cost £20 per person for a 90-minute session and must be booked in advance on their website.

Managing director James Gammell is hoping to see even more challengers this year, with the addition of an extra 60m of new inflatable obstacles.

He said: “The Tartan Titan was a screaming success last year and we jumped at the chance to bring it back again this summer.

“Families, friends and workplaces came from all over Scotland to take on the course and we’ve already had a number of bookings from returning visitors who want to do it all over again.”
