Poole's Cavern is a 2 million year old, natural limestone cave situated in the beautiful woodland of Buxton Country Park. One of the great caves of the Peak District. Once used by cave dwelling ancestors for shelter, Poole's Cavern has been known as 'The First Wonder of the Peak' since the 1600's. Visitors for the 21st century can enjoy the latest facilities in our new visitor centre, enjoy a tasty meal or snack in the cavern cafe and discover the secret world of caves in our exhibition. Our Rock Shop has an incredible selection of crystals, minerals and fossils as well as local guides, maps and gifts. Guided tours through Poole's cavern begin every 20 minutes. Our expert guides will lead you on a one hour journey deep into the Peak District's hidden landscape. The cavern is well lit with good pathways and only 26 steps throughout.
