Crag Cave

Crag Cave boasts an amazing 3.8km long network of caves walled with gloriously aged limestone: over the last 15,000 years excellent specimens have formed into stalactites and stalagmites, pillars, curtains, flowstones and straws, offering an unparalleled opportunity to see in precise stages the geological history of the cave. Fascinating!

Most kids will enjoy the melodrama of descending beneath the ground and the caves are pleasingly yet un-intimidatingly atmospheric. Even those who aren't so keen however will adore the Crystal Gallery, where hundreds of bright white calcite stalactites hand delicately from the roof of the cavern and is a spectacular sight!
