Then, it’s time to go below ground and take on the Caverns (ages 10+) - a unique underground course in a slate mine disused for over 200 years. You’ll fly over 13 zip lines, traverse rope bridges and tightropes in an exhilarating 3-hour challenge.

Looking for a fun activity at a much slower pace? Putt your way peacefully around the most unique adventure golf courses in the UK. Take on the 18-hole course, set 500 ft below the ground in a disused cavern, and only accessible by Europe’s steepest cable railway. This underground adventure is illuminated by an impressive light display and interactive elements which stretch across 4 floors. Despite the course being underground, the weather conditions are relatively warm at 7°C so make sure to dress sensibly. When you get to the end of the course you can set off a bunch of explosives to celebrate, quarry style.
Have you got 1.5 hours spare? Spend it soaking up the past in the Deep Mine Tour. Transport yourselves back to the 19th Century, 500 ft down in its fascinating past. Climb aboard Europe's steepest railway and learn about this iconic mine's 16 underground levels. Uncover the stories of former miners and see world-class slate. Develop a very real understanding of the local men and children who risked their lives everyday to provide for their families. The tour is available in English and Welsh.
Are you ready to plan your next aerial adventure? Whether you are after some zip line training, amazing quarry views, adrenaline activities, an all-weather activity, or you want to learn about the iconic slate caverns first hand, Zip World Llechwedd is the ultimate adventure for families!
Psst! Keep your eyes and ears alert for exciting seasonal events. Our magical Christmas event, Zipmas helps to illuminate your Winter. Join us for some festive fun underground as we venture underground to Santa's Workshop and grotto.
