Caving SRT Training Course

SRT Caving Course

This SRT Caving Course is a two day bespoke course. On it you will learn single rope technique (SRT) which allows you to access deeper cave systems. We also look at equipment and cover self rescue scenarios.  Ideally you should have done some caving before and have a reasonable level of fitness.

Our instructor ratio is kept low for a better experience. The training uses both indoor  SRT facilities as well as venturing into cave systems. These SRT caving courses are run in the Peak District and the Yorkshire Dales

We usually need a Minimum of 2 people but can run this on an individual basis. 1:1 - £220pd 1:2 £240pd

Caving course Derbushire

Peak District Caving Course

Intro Caving Course

On our intro to caving course we use expert cave instructors to look after you. They will guide, entertain, educate and ensure your enjoyment as you access some amazing places. Some of the best caves lie in the limestone hills surrounding the village of Castelton.

This course is aimed at people who maybe haven't tried caving before. Most challenges are optional so don't worry about small confined spaces. We can walk through passages into larger open caverns and give you options on what to do.

The more challenging option is our Intermediate Caving Course.

If you want an idea of what we do please take a look at some caving videos on our facebook page.
