Wookey Hole Caving Adventure

Prepare for an unforgettable adventure as you descend into the remarkable Wookey Hole Caves, where excitement and exploration await! This is not just a simple caving experience, but a half-day thrill filled with climbing, crawling, abseiling, and discovering incredible chambers. With expert guides leading the way, you’ll conquer the fascinating limestone formations that have captivated adventurers for ages.

Located on the scenic edge of the Mendip Hills, Wookey Hole is home to a series of awe-inspiring caves. While you navigate these stunning underground landscapes, you’ll encounter various challenges that will keep you engaged and on your toes. Whether you’re squeezing through narrow openings or scrambling to the next chamber, there’s never a dull moment.

And the adventure doesn’t stop there! Experience a delightful little boat ride over the subterranean River Axe before tackling the thrilling Via Ferrata, a European-style climbing experience that you can only find underground here at Wild Wookey. Getting down to the next level means abseiling down, which adds an extra element of excitement.

Rest assured, even with all this action, you won’t be getting wet. Although an underground river runs through these magnificent caves, there’s no need for swimming, diving, or wading,keeping you dry while you navigate through stunning formations and learn about the cave’s unique features. All you need is sturdy footwear and a spirit for adventure. Our team provides safety equipment like harnesses, helmets, and head torches, so you can focus on enjoying the experience.
