Description

This is an authentic experience exploring an abandoned mine, with various optional challenges; involving climbing, an abseil, a tyrolean (short zipline) and a short boat crossing. There isn't anything artificial about this trip with the addition of safety anchors being the only changes you'll find in the mine, where necessary, as such, it is most similar to caving with the only lights being those on your headtorches (provided). This is the perfect family adventure, Stag/Hen do activity and couple challenge.

Exploring a Lead Mine

We had an amazing time with Sol exploring a lead mine. Sol is very knowledgeable about the mine and its history, and ensured that we had a smooth and safe trip through the various levels of the mine, would definitely recommend 👍🏼

Really fun caving, very friendly and experienced guide

Our guide Sol was really nice, very generous, and very experienced. It was very wet, and he let me borrow his waterproof bottoms for the whole caving experience, and I would've been drenched without them. He clearly knew what he was doing and knew a lot about the place and told us loads of cool facts! Loads of activities to do in the cave like ziplining abseiling, and walking up a waterfall which was amazing!

Best family day out in ages (maybe ever???)

We did this trip as part of our family holiday, with my kids aged 6,9 and 11. We all loved it. The trip leader was brill. He tailored the experience to what we needed. Gave loads of interesting facts about the mine and was really encouraging and kind, supporting the kids to do things that were out of their comfort zone. One of the best days out we have had in ages. A really unique experience, we loved it. Definitely value for money

Amazing guide

Sol was incredibly professional, and we, a group of four, thoroughly enjoyed our caving adventure with him. We felt safe and guided throughout the experience, and we particularly loved the history lessons he shared about the caves.

UNDERGROUND SLATE ADVENTURE - EXELLANT

Went on the underground slate adventure during the May half term with my husband and 8 year old son. The experience was AMAZING exploring the labyrinth of the slate mines with a boat ride, zip lining, abseiling and climbing a waterfall. Sol our guide was fantastic and so knowledgable. I would not hesitate to book another trip with adventure activities, such a brilliant experience with so many happy memories made. Thank you Sol 👍

My husband and I took our...

My husband and I took our 11 year old son on the underground adventure with Sol and it far exceeded our expectations. Our son loves adventure and gets bored easily but over the 4 hours we spent with Sol, he kept things engaging and the activities involved were suitable for an 11 year old, but added a sense of controlled ‘danger’ which held my sons enthusiasm and interest (he’s an adrenaline seeker). For me personally, I have a couple of injuries which limited my ability to participate in some of the activities, which wasn’t a problem. Sol had alternative ways to move forward which did not require scrambling, zip lining or abseiling. My husband had a great time and also felt the activities were the right level of difficulty to be a challenge but not too hard. All in all, a very enjoyable experience.
