Can i extend my thanks to the team for making this happen

Yes, thank to UK Caving Club for hosting the forum.

That's the one, though the boat is often completely submerged in winter. Trips in through the showcave aren't really allowed if it's just for fun, and the main route in is via Peak Cavern, which is more of an ordeal but is proper caving. Wetness and muddyness is guaranteed, but wetness at least is possible at the end, which means removing the muddyness! Speedwell in winter can be scary, and definitely requires a well-insulated




approach - wetsuit or a very thick furry undersuit.


Can only agree with that brilliant site up at Castleton

The Castleton area is amazing Tom for sure , as said make sure you are dressed properly

I'm sure Keith won't object - this shows the main route:
