Access

The entrance to Knock Fell Caverns is on Access Land. Natural England have requested that cavers email Martin Furness (Senior Reserve Manager, Northern Pennines NNR) via Martin.Furness@naturalengland.org.uk to obtain a permit. The permit is accompanied by a code of conduct to sign and return. Where your visit is planned with sufficient advance notice, we do encourage cavers to help sustain relations with Natural England by ontaining a permit, even though this is not an absolute requirement due to the cave being on Access Land. A GPS/Compass is essential to locate the entrance, and a survey for the caverns is essential to help with routefinding once underground (included below).
