Did you know there is a 'Lost Valley' attraction, just one hour from Birmingham, that has been rated as one of the top 10% of things to do worldwide in the Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Awards 2026?
Aztec Adventure The Lost Valley in Evesham boasts an 18-hole outdoor adventure golf course and a high ropes aerial adventure course. It is right next to The Valley Evesham, which features more than 25 shops, an adventure play castle, a railway, a garden centre, and a splash pad during the summer months.
Seasonal events are also held, such as Glow Golf and Neon Heights night-time high ropes for after-dark thrills.
Tripadvisor recognition
The awards are based on customer reviews and ratings over the past year. A spokesman for Aztec Adventure said: 'Aztec Adventure The Lost Valley has just been named among the top 10% of things to do worldwide in the Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Awards 2026 – based on a full year of reviews and ratings from our visitors.'
'That is a properly special bit of news for a Worcestershire attraction at The Valley Evesham. And we want to take a moment to say thank you, because this one is not really about us.'
Each year, the Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Awards recognise the businesses that travellers consistently rate highest, based on twelve months of real reviews and ratings from people who have actually visited. Only the top 10% of all listings worldwide make the cut.
'There are no panels, no entry fees, no clever marketing. You either get reviewed well enough by enough people, or you do not. We did – and that means more to us than we can really put into words.'
'Reviews are how a small, family-run adventure centre in Worcestershire gets noticed alongside attractions in cities and countries we have never even been to. Every five-star rating, every 'we will definitely be back', every kind word about our team adds up to something real. It helps new visitors find us, it tells us what we are doing right, and – clearly – it lands us in the top 10% of things to do on the planet.'
'So genuinely, from all of the team at The Lost Valley: thank you.'
The attraction is open on weekends, bank holidays, and daily during school holidays. Aztec Adventure has three sites, including one in Lower Warren near Bromsgrove and another in Pershore.
