Journey beneath the Yorkshire Dales for a magical sound bath surrounded by ancient rock & the extraordinary acoustics of Ingleborough Cave ♡

There are some places that are made for sound ♡

This September, we invite you to journey beneath the Yorkshire Dales for a sound bath somewhere truly extraordinary.

Hidden beneath the landscape, surrounded by ancient rock and shaped by nature over millions of years, Ingleborough Cave will become the setting for an hour of sound, stillness and deep connection with the earth.

Before we journey underground, our experience begins amongst the trees and water of the Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail.

We’ll walk together through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales landscape towards the cave entrance, allowing the journey itself to become part of the experience.

And then we step beneath the earth ♡

Hard hats on, we’ll make our way through the beautifully lit natural passageways of Ingleborough Cave before arriving at the space where our sound bath will take place.

Here, deep beneath the Yorkshire Dales, we’ll settle into our chairs and allow the incredible acoustics of the cave to become part of the sound.

The resonance

The echoes

The ancient rock surrounding us

The earth holding us ♡

For approximately one hour, you’ll be invited to settle and receive as the sounds and vibrations travel, echo and resonate through this remarkable underground space.

Held and cocooned beneath the earth, this is Sound Healing Magic in a place unlike anywhere we have shared it before ♡

Your Journey

Your experience begins at 3:15pm at The Old Sawmill Café.

You are very welcome to arrive earlier and make a day of your visit, enjoy the surrounding area or have lunch and refreshments at the café before we meet.

At 3:30pm, we’ll set off together along the approximately 1.2 mile Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail towards the cave.

Following the trail through beautiful woodland, alongside the water and surrounded by nature, there is time to breathe, take in the landscape and gently arrive into the experience.

The trail follows a well-maintained gravel track at a gentle incline.

Once we reach Ingleborough Cave, there will be time to use the toilet facilities and purchase refreshments from the cave shop before collecting our hard hats and heading underground.

We will then walk through the cave to our sound bath space, ready to begin at approximately 4:30pm.

Please be aware that there are two short sections within the cave where the roof height reduces and you will need to bend down and stoop as you walk through.

After approximately one hour of sound, we’ll make our way back through the cave and return together along the Nature Trail.

Seating & Ticket Options

This is a seated sound bath, chosen especially for the cave environment and to help everyone stay warm and comfortable throughout the experience.

There are two ticket options:

♡ Bring Your Own Chair

Bring your own lightweight, foldable camping chair so you can choose the level of comfort and support that feels right for you.

Please remember that you will need to carry your chair along the Nature Trail to the cave and back again afterwards.

♡ Chair Provided

A basic Eurohike camping chair will be provided for you to collect at the cave entrance.

The chairs have a maximum weight capacity of 14 stone.

These are simple camping chairs, so if you would prefer additional comfort or support while sitting for approximately one hour, we recommend bringing your own suitable foldable chair.

Keeping Warm & Comfortable

Ingleborough Cave remains at approximately 8°C throughout the year, whatever the temperature may be outside.

Please come prepared with plenty of warm layers and suitable, comfortable footwear for both the Nature Trail and cave environment.

You may also wish to bring a warm blanket, extra layers and anything small that will help you feel comfortable while seated.

Please remember that anything you bring with you will need to be carried to the cave and back again.

Parking & Meeting Point

Parking for the event is at the Yorkshire Dales National Park car park in Clapham, just off Church Avenue, LA2 8EA.

The car park is pay and display.

From the car park, please make your way to The Old Sawmill Café, where we will meet at 3:15pm.

Please allow plenty of time to park and reach the meeting point so that we are ready to leave together promptly at 3:30pm.
