Access

Landowner is Douk Gill Farm in Horton-in-Ribblesdale, although access is usually refused. Currently (February 2025), a caver has been able to negotiate access for a solo diving project at Douk Gill Cave, and he has advised that an approach by other cavers to request permission is likely to jeopardise his, and all other future access. He has politely requested that this cave be tagged as ‘no access’ on our website. We suggest that any cavers interested in this site should initially contact the diver (Rupert Skorupka) to discuss the current situation rather than approaching the farm. Please let us know if you would like us to facilitate communications with Rupert.
