Exploration for everyone

Caving has to be one of the most popular and enjoyable activities at Govilon. People come back year after year, wanting to relive past experiences. For anyone that has not caved before it is a unique experience which cannot be found elsewhere and we suggest entering into it with an open mind. You will put on strange clothing and equipment and be given a helmet and lamp. We will share some basic information about caves and caving prior to descending, but by far the best way to learn about caving is to be underground. There are a number of suitable caves that provide challenging and exciting experiences in South Wales. It is also a great way for young people to learn elements of geography, history and science in this fascinating world under our feet.
