CAVING - GONG UNDERGROUND

A great activity for summer or winter as the temperature underground remains constant throughout the year. Caving is usually run as a half day session and lends itself well to being combined with a half day climbing or coasteering.

The caves we use have 3600 feet of passages and offer a variety of routes of different heights, widths, and degrees of difficulty. This means that your instructor will be able to choose a route that suits your ability and comfort levels. There are routes through the cave that even the claustrophobic will be able to handle, or we can have you squeezing through unbelievably tight holes and crawling through narrow passages. It’s all up to you and you will never be forced into a situation that you are not entirely comfortable with. Depending on conditions the cave also offers the opportunity to try a simple sump - where you exit one chamber by diving under water, pull yourself through a hole, and emerge in a different chamber.
