ShareThis ultimate indoor activity will have you venture deep into the famous caves at Cheddar to see where the Cheddar Man, Britain's oldest skeleton, was discovered.
Spend the day challenging yourself on an adventure caving expedition deep into the Mendip Hills at Cheddar Gorge, located just one hour outside of Bath in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Alongside a caving guide you’ll set out on a quarter of a mile route and climb, crawling and squeezing through different chambers. The final obstacle is to slide headfirst through a tiny gap known as the 'Letterbox', before finishing a proud and muddy hero. All equipment will be provided so you’ll just need to bring clothes you don’t mind getting caked in mud.
And, most importantly, don’t forget to frame your certificate of achievement that you’ll be awarded at the end!
