Discover one of South Devon’s best kept secrets: the stunning Pridhamsleigh Cavern. Bring out your inner explorer in this mystical and muddy underworld.
What to expect
Pridhamsleigh is an ideal site for new cavers, small and tall, with its rich variety of passages, chambers, nooks and waterways. Nestled in an ancient orchard near Dartington, the cave is approximately 1.1 kilometres in length with a total depth of just over 50 metres. Look out for The Bishop’s Chamber, The Lake, The Cheese Press and The Keyhole as your instructor leads you through the maze. Prizes for anyone who spots one of the legendary resident Blind White Cave Shrimps.
