Gaping Gill is one of the most famous caves in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and one of the largest underground chambers in Britain. It is normally reached from Clapham by walking past Ingleborough Cave and up onto the slopes of Ingleborough. Please take care around the entrance as it is unfenced.

Do you want to visit Gaping Gill and find out more? There is more information about Gaping Gill in the Caving section of our website along with details on how to visit.

Exploring caves takes knowledge, the right equipment and experience. It is best to gain these either through a course run by a qualified guide or by joining a local club. If you know what you are doing and just need to hire some equipment, then Inglesports is the place to go.

Have a look in the Call in the Experts section or on the New to Caving website for a local club.
