Are you looking for a thrilling adventure that immerses you in a world of wonder? Caving in the Peak District is just the thing for you. Join us on our one or two-day courses as we explore the underground labyrinths of Derbyshire's cave and mining systems.
Before we begin, we'll kit you out with all the gear you need - a sturdy waterproof suit and boots, helmet, and head torch. Once we're ready, we'll take you on an unforgettable journey into a subterranean world that is lit only by your own lamp. As you move through the caverns, you'll come across extraordinary displays of stalactites hanging from soaring cave roofs and stalagmites growing up from the floor. You'll explore underground waterfalls and rivers that rise and fall according to the weather.
But that's not all. As you delve deeper into the caves, you'll learn about the geology behind these incredible sights and how nature forms them over millions of years. You'll discover how these fascinating environments have evolved their fantastic shapes, complete with crystal and clay formations. Our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides will explain the two types of calcite formations - the long, slender stalactites that are just able to support their own weight and the solid, stumpy stalagmites arrayed across the rocky floor.
Be aware that there are two types of caving - horizontal and vertical. For horizontal caving, you'll be mostly walking along with some stooping and crawling. On vertical caving, you'll be climbing up or down, using special caving rope ladders and going deeper. You'll need to be fairly fit and up for this style of caving.
Go on, give caving a go and explore the incredible underground world of caves and mines in Derbyshire.
