About Us
Cheddar Gorge & Caves are hosting a fun and 'spooktacular' skeleton trail and a Halloween-themed party running from 26th October – 3rd November 2024,
Cheddar Man, the 10,000 year-old resident skeleton who lives in Gough's Cave has invited his skeleton friends to visit him this Halloween half-term and join a 'spine-tingling' party.
To get an invite to the party, everyone must complete the trail in Gough's Cave. This is no ordinary skeleton trail as they have brought along their skeletal creature friends who must be found.
The fun 'skele-brations' include themed party games, arts and crafts and a Halloween reward badge for completing the trail.
Dogs are welcome too so everyone can join in the fun.
This experience is included in the price of your Day Ticket, so you can enjoy six exciting attractions and the Halloween activities. Explore Gough's Cave, our spectacular stalactite show cave where Cheddar Man was unearthed and find out about his amazing DNA discovery. Discover our new multimedia experience, 'Yeo's Journey' in Cox's Cave that tells the captivating story of how our iconic caves were formed and evolved through the 'power of water'. Learn how our ancestors lived and survived in the Museum of Prehistory. Find out more about the local history, wildlife and plants in our Beyond the View cinema experience. Venture up the 274 steps of Jacob's Ladder to The Lookout Tower and the Cliff-Top Walk where you will enjoy stunning views of the gorge and Mendip Hills - a landscape that has been millions of years in the making!
