Caving with Outdoor Pursuits!

Join Outdoor Pursuits for our annual caving trip to Mammoth Cave!

Looking for a fun day trip away from campus? Come with Outdoor Pursuits on our annual caving trip to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky on April 15!

We'll be taking a morning drive up to Mammoth Cave National Park, where we'll participate in the Introduction to Caving tour, learning the basic rules and techniques of spelunking and seeing some of the lesser-traveled areas of the cave. Afterward, we'll break for lunch and head out on some trails in the park itself.

Cost for the trip is $30 per participant, and registration forms are available at the Beaman desk and climbing wall. Only ten spots are available, so sign up soon! Contact Megan at megan.erbes@belmont.edu for more information or with any questions.
