Caving Expedition at Melchsee-Frutt

Dear Monkeys,

We all love hiking up the mountains, but have you ever wondered what the inside of these mountains looks like?

Itinerary
========

We will meet at Zurich HB on Saturday 11 July at 7m (little car park on Museumstrasse) and will drive to Stöckalp. From there we will take the cable car up to Bonistock (via Melchsee-Frutt) and meet our caving guide there. Under his guidance, we will discover the souterrain of Melchsee-Frutt and and explore one of the largest karst caves in Switzerland. The adventure ends with the lowering down from 35m.

This activity is accessible to caving beginners, as long as you are fit and not scared of being underground!

Please wear hiking boots (the guides might not let you in if you do not wear hiking boots) and bring your packed lunch and water.
