Discover the cave systems of Arrábida Natural Park whilst caving with a professional instructor. Be amazed by an underground world and be entertained by the stories of your guide.
Discover Caving and the Arrábida Natural Park with a group of highly qualified specialists in Caving, and nature and adventure sports for over 30 years.
The cave systems of the Arrábida Natural Park are the perfect place to practice Speleology. Get ready to be amazed by the underground world and the legends and stories lost in time, told by caves and caverns where time seems to stop, day and night merge and in total darkness we discover another way of seeing. Explore several overlapping galleries on different levels, such as the Gruta do Médico or where the mountain meets the sea in Lapa Verde, between the picturesque town of Sesimbra and the city of Setúbal, less than an hour's drive from Lisbon.
At Caving you will start with a safety briefing and an introduction to your Caving guide/instructor and equipment. During this experience, you will explore several underground passages using various climbing and abseiling techniques, equipped with personal protective equipment and always safe, in the company of the first Portuguese speleologist to visit the largest cave in the world (Son Doong).
The instructors and monitors are accredited by the Portuguese Speleology Federation.
Whether you are beginner or experienced, it is ideal to enjoy by yourself or in group, with your friends, family and/or partner, celebrate birthdays, bachelor(ettes), or school or corporate events, accessible to everyone.
Don't question yourself any longer and accept this challenge to discover Caving in the Arrábida Natural Park.
