We will provide you with the ideal and exciting opportunity to explore and experience first-hand the wonderful world of underground caves, their passageways, formations and chambers.
Along the way your expert cave guide will make the journey fun, memorable, and , if you wish, educational by informing you of cave development. You will have the option for your caving experience to include participation in some challenges if this is what you would like to achieve.
This caving experience takes place in mainly horizontal passages with one or two vertical pitches depending on the location we use. We use a safety rope to give you the security you require when ascending or descending vertical pitches.
If you don’t like tight spaces, then do not worry, as we will not make you crawl through these, after all this is a friendly and relaxed introduction to caving.
The total distance to and from the cave and underground is not that far. In total approximately 2km and we take a steady pace with rests along the way.
