Are you ready for an adventure of a lifetime? Then consider exploring the wondrous underground cave and mining systems on a one or two-day caving course in Derbyshire's Peak District. Discover the subterranean world and leave the daylight behind as you gear up with a waterproof suit and boots, helmet, and head torch.
As you make your way through the caverns, you'll be awestruck by the beauty and magnificence of the stalactites, stalagmites, underground waterfalls and rivers, all of which have taken millions of years to form. You'll witness firsthand the incredible power and beauty of nature, and learn about the geology and the fascinating process of how these underground environments have evolved.
The courses are led by enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides who'll help you understand the various calcite formations, including the long slender stalactites and the solid, stumpy stalagmites. You'll even have the opportunity to experience both horizontal and vertical caving, each offering a unique and exciting challenge.
Horizontal caving involves mostly walking, stooping, and crawling, while vertical caving requires climbing up or down, using special caving rope ladders, and requires a higher level of physical fitness. Our non-residential one and two-day courses are led by a Peak District caving specialist, and are perfect for those who are seeking an extraordinary and unforgettable experience.
So, what are you waiting for? Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey and explore the incredible underground world of caves and mines in Derbyshire.
