The Underground Cathedral

A guided expedition into vast cave systems, subterranean river cold-immersion, and a chamber concert and dinner a hundred metres underground.

Beyond the brochure

The real story.

The cave goes on for kilometres, and the river that made it still runs through it, and the water is the same temperature every day of the year.

You go in with lamps and instructors and come to a chamber the size of a cathedral, and there is a string quartet.

Dinner follows, a hundred metres down.
