Artificial Caving

caving_halifaxNever thought it possible? Well here at the Boiler House we have an artificial cave with 500ft of passageway and various obstacles such as ‘Pete’s Peril’, ‘Cornish’s Crawl’ and ‘Ball Pool Duck’. The artificial cave at the Boiler House offers a new and exciting opportunity to test yourself in a caving environment; with the safe knowledge of a shorter caving experience with fast escape routes should they be required.

The test passageway allows you to experience the cave in a short route designed to give confidence and motivation to tackle the more difficult passageways of the artificial cave. The 500ft cave requires the courage and determination required when caving in the natural environment, offering the effects of artificial water, climbs, descents, rocks and boulders.
