Hazards and Warnings
Pillow-sized loose flake of rock reported 11th December 2024, in the vicinity of Anchor 4 on our topo (final deviation of entrance pitch). Cavers on the balcony below should stand well clear. Further updates would be appreciated, particularly if any groups are able to safely neutralise the issue.
Reported 10th September 2020; Potential loose boulder overhanging the narrow rift with in-situ handline connecting the Cresta Run down to the lower series near the start of the route to Lyle Cavern. Take note and due care and please report back to CNCC if you feel this warning is no longer justified.

Access
Book online
Advanced online booking is required. You can also email the booking seretary.
Access to this cave is available to everyone all year round, but must be booked prior to your trip to satisfy the landowner’s requirements for managed access (and out of courtesy to other cavers too). One booking may be made per cave entrance per day. The CNCC has created a simple online booking system to allow individuals to book access to this (and other) caves using an intuitive calendar-based approach.
Note: First time users will need to register before being able to log into the system. The process should be self-explanatory but if you have any questions please email our system administrator via the address below.
Bookings made via the online system are live immediately.
Anyone wishing to book access without using the online system can do so by emailing the system administrator. Please include details of which cave you would like to book and what date:
booking@cncc.org.uk
Please note that if you are arranging your booking by email, rather than via the online system, you MUST wait for confirmation from the system administrator that your chosen date is available and the booking has been finalised BEFORE visiting the cave. Please allow two weeks’ notice in the eventuality the administrator is on holiday.
