Operational Info

Go underground

Zip World Caverns is a unique, exhilarating and atmospheric course across rope bridges, via ferrata and tunnels. The ultimate all weather adventure for all the family!

The experience

Your underground adventure begins with a safety briefing, where you’ll be given a hard hat and a 20 minute talk on how to use the equipment.

Then it’s time to venture down into the caves, where you’ll be wired up to a harness for total safety throughout the experience. You’ll complete a short training course before progressing onto the main event…

Soar along zip lines, climb down ladders against the rock face, clamber through small openings and across wooden beams as you navigate the course. Lit by coloured spotlights, the cavern has been kept as it looked 200 years ago when it was a working Victorian slate mine and gives off an atmospheric glow. It’s hard to imagine until you’re down there – so why not give it a go!
