Try cave exploring with the famous "Wet & Wild Cave Adventure"!

With the rainy season upon us, Mother Nature takes centre stage again. We just try to keep up. The caves transform from a serene environment to a high-energy, wet and wild adventure! Witness the awesome forces that carved these marble caverns into the mountains near Qualicum Beach.

 

This place rocks!     

    

PRE-TRIP PLANNING - The caves at Horne Lake are largely undeveloped and kept in a natural state. In keeping with the low-impact theme, none of the caves have permanent lighting or sidewalks and the floors are rocky and uneven. In winter, wetter conditions prevail and the tours are NOT for children under 8. Due to the terrain, the very elderly or those with limited mobility may have difficulty on the trails or in the caves. The temperature inside the caves is cool (8 degrees Celsius or 48 degrees Fahrenheit) Bring warm clothes and sturdy boots or running shoes. Cameras are welcome! 

 

2012 WINTER – Oct. 3 / 2011 to Apr. 30 / 2012

Winter trips can be very, very wet. Bring a complete change of clothes and a fun attitude.
