The Aladdin Cave (get hooked on adventure)

The Aladdin Adventure tour takes place once a week only. The Aladdin Cave was used as a show cave until the 1940s, and the lower sections contain masses of very pretty crystal formations and other surprises - so bring your compact camera.

You should complete the Plughole Adventure before the Aladdin Adventure, as The Plughole is a little less strenuous and eases you into squeezes and other caving manoeuvres more progressively.

The Aladdin requires agility right from the start, beginning with a steep, enclosed climb down.  Therefore, we don't recommend this adventure to anyone prone to claustrophobia. Challenges like 'The Traverse', 'The Slide' and 'Langs Leap' will set your heart thumping. If they don't, the return climb will!

Cavers suit-up in overalls, helmets and headlamps at the Old Schoolhouse, have a look at the cave map and then walk up the beautiful McKeowns Valley, before a short but strenuous climb uphill to the cave.

After a safety and minimal-impact briefing in the 'Moonmilk Chamber', we head into the dark. The cave includes an exciting downhill climb through the 'Rockpile', edging across 'The Traverse', climbing some fixed cave ladders, a slide, and then the fabulous reward for your efforts - squeezes into some highly decorated, very photogenic sections of cave.

The way out begins with a climb up 'The Slide', and continues up - so save some energy! The return walk from the cave includes a stroll through the dramatic Devils Coachhouse, a vast cave which provides an interesting contrast to the more intimate Aladdin Cave.

This tour is a great challenge, which will definitely stay in your memory for a long time. You can proudly show friends your Certificate of Achievement and free photos of your trip downloaded from our Mediafire page.
