‘Adventure Caving’ is full on expedition style caving that takes you into the untamed wilderness of the Te Tahi cave system. Fully equipped with harnesses, lights, helmets, wetsuits your adventure begins in our base in Charleston. Te Tahi Cave is a short drive on a remote road into the West Coast Wilderness. Following practice, your adventure begins with a 130 ft abseil down a breath-taking shaft. The last of daylight fades as you begin to scramble through a dark abyss of passages deep below. You will scramble, crawl and abseil to reach the active waterways.

A rushing stream-way awaits where you will chimney, bridge and climb waterfalls to traverse.  You will be surrounded by the sound and smell in an overwhelmingly exciting and powerful cave atmosphere.  On wriggling through the last fun filled squeeze, the cave opens up to a welcoming large series of chambers with one final climb to daylight and a well-hidden exit.

This is definitely the right adventure for fit capable adventurers who have a real desire for a complete caving experience in a sporty cave, one impossible to experience without expert guidance. All equipment is provided including yummy power snacks and your own personalized photographic image set free taken for you of your adventure.

Why is this Chuffed Worthy?

This is off the beaten track epic adventure. Unfortunately though – for the time being there aren’t enough visitors on the West Coast. We hope the Adventure Caving will re-open as visitors return to the West Coast.
