Lincoln Scouts Caving Club came to life in 1983 when the local Venture Scout Unit took up caving as an outdoor pursuit.
During the last three decades the club has continued to introduce scouts to this amazing sport and support local district camps, activities and events. During the last few years we have refined what we can offer to Scouts in a progressive and informative format.
Adults are needed to run activities for scouts - if you can help, see the document "Adults in the Scout Caving Club" on the Forms page.

Beginners Caving Trips
These are day trips underground in Derbyshire for the over 12's. Please see our Program Page as we have many beginners trips arranged throughout the year. During these trips the Scout can put to practice everything they have learnt at the training session. Completing four trips would see the Scout complete their Scout Cavers Badge. These trips commence from Altham Terrace at 8:30am.
