Caving Experience

We have an above ground caving experience that can be hired & operated by groups. The duty wardens will show you the facility & how it operates & then leave you to run the activity yourselves. We have helmets & knee pads for users to wear & there are two emergency escape hatches on the narrow section, just in case. There is dim & bright lighting in each chamber that can be switched on as required. No more than 10 people allowed in the complex at once.

The easiest way to book any of our onsite activities is to book in advance using our
on-line Activities Booking Form. Alternatively, you may contact our Activities Coordinator should you have any questions.

This facility can also be booked onsite with the duty warden team (if booking onsite you may have a limited choice of times if others have already prebooked)

Fees for all our activites can be found on our Fees Page.
We recommend a maximum of 12 people in a 1 hour session.

We hire the caving out in 1 hour sessions starting at 9.30, 10.45, 12.00, 2.00, 3.15 & 4.30 on Saturday & Sunday. Midweek bookings may be possible sometimes. Please make sure you are not late as you might not get your full hour if another group are booked in after you. Other times can sometimes be arranged.

An adult MUST be in attendance to supervise this activity.
