Wookey Hole walks

You can find links for many pleasant walks on the Mendip Hills website, including this one that can be started from the village:   

 

Ebbor Gorge and Model Farm: 4 mile, 2.5 hours walk

Notes: at stage two, instead of ‘almost immediately turn right to walk past the lime kilns, then bear left onto the lane’ keep straight on to go through the impressive ‘split rock’.You can then go through a gate into the field and straight ahead to pick up the walk at stage 3 ‘to go through a metal gate in a stone wall’ left of the farm.

Cave Diving in Wookey Hole Caves

WookeyHole-caveentrance.jpgMany people regard cave diving as the most dangerous sporting activity one can choose to pursue. It is an activity which requires the most high-tech equipment in order to explore the increasingly hazardous unknowns. Extensive training, experience and preparation are essential for these divers to survive the depth or distances that are covered. Cocklebiddy Cave in Australia has the longest known underwater series of passages covered by man at 5290m however its depth barely reaches more than 30m. Nacimiento del Rio Mante in Mexico by contrast attains a staggering depth record of 267m.
