Do you remember the thrill of going down a cave when you were young?
The caves in South Wales are well worth a visit. Come on a caving adventure with us and your guide will take you through the limestone caves at Porth-yr-Ogof. You will see stalagtites and stalagmites that were formed over 250 million years ago.
Your activity will be organized according to the needs of your group. If you are up for a challenge you can squeeze through the ‘letter box’ or ‘toilet’. Have fun helping each other navigate some of the difficult passages.
Or you can also simply walk around the bigger sections of the cave and marvel at the awe-inspiring underground scenery.
Our caving adventure in the Brecon Beacons will take you out of your daily routine and transport you to a world of quiet wonder and magic.
“Porth Yr Ogof (translated as the gateway to the cave) boasts the largest entrance of any cave in Wales at over 17 m wide and almost 5 m tall. The maze of passages with multiple entrances and easy access has made this the most popular cave in South Wales for outdoor activity groups. The cave is estimated to have over 30,000 visitors per year. The main cave is accessed via a limestone walkway on the east side of the main entrance which leads into the large day lit entrance chamber.” www.ogof.org.uk
