About

A world hidden from the surface but full of adventure and challenge for all

Caving is an adventure activity full of challenges and a real opportunity for a feeling of exploration. From simple passageways to great labyrinths. Your journey feels like you’re reaching into the bowels of the earth on a true adventure.

Taking a journey that begun around 365 million years ago during the Carboniferous period we’ll follow the passageways cut through the limestone over tens and hundreds of thousands of years by the underground streams and rivers.

The experience is incredibly rewarding where magical sights, thousands of years in the making, sculpted rocks and the delicate formations are a joy to behold.

The caver may walk, squeeze, climb, and crawl, plunge and wade while ascending and descending through the wonderful spaces left by the cascading water over thousands of years.

For the beginner there is a unique delight waiting to be discovered. For the experienced caver there is a world of subterranean labyrinths to explore.

Basic vertical trips can take place near Kirkby Lonsdale and much of the novice horizontal caving is near the village of Ingleton.

About Go Cave

Whether you are looking for bespoke 1:1 cave guiding in some of the deeper and more challenging caves of England, Scotland and Wales or the opportunity for a number of like-minded friends to do something completely out of the ordinary, let GoCave.com design a programme of activity and adventure that suits you.

As an organisation we avoid the standard and off the shelf caving courses. We prefer the opportunity to look at your requirements and build a partnership centred on win/win. That means we work in an area that suits you and we select the venue that best suits your abilities and capabilities, while still providing the opportunity for excitement, challenge and a few nerves.

All cave guiding and instruction quotes are provided on an individual basis, according to your specific requirements GoCave prices

Please contact us to discuss your ideas and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can. If it’s not immediate, it’s probably because we’re out enjoying ourselves caving somewhere down under!
