About this event

Have an explorers spirit? Want a true adventure in a safe and stunning underworld? Then ‘explore caving’ is perfect for you and all the family.

Join us on a journey through a spectacular underground world, and let us guide you along and through stunning streamways and quiet chambers, admire ancient formations and fossils, and tackle waterfalls, cascades and simple climbs all as part of the fun, with some 'optional' crawling and other fun challenges too! We supply all the kit required for this amazing and unique experience including caving oversuit, helmet and light, belt and wellies.

The day will begin by meeting at our outdoor activity barn near Stainforth at 10am. Here you will be briefed by your highly experienced instructor about the day and then kitted out with all the required caving equipment before following the instructor in your car to the parking location for the caves. It will then be a short walk of around 10-25mins to the caves, depending on venue and you should expect a caving trip in the region of 1.5-2 hrs duration.

We run our courses and events even if only one person books so you can be confident with your booking.

More information will be provided upon booking, including directions, kit lists, more information about the day and medical forms. Please do keep an eye on your junk/SPAM email as sometimes our email with attachments does end up in here.

If you have any questions about the day, then please dont hesitate to get in touch via phone, email, or our enquiry form on the website. NOTE: Upon confirmation of booking, we would appreciate a quick email or call with your contact telephone number as Eventbrite doesn't allow us to ask for this.

Please note that the sun doesnt always shine in the Yorkshire Dales, and we cannot offer refunds in the event of a cancellation due to particularly adverse weather conditions. However, we have a range of excellent and exciting venues we can use and so we will do our very best to choose a suitable venue for the day in the event of bad weather.
