For Adventure Seekers

If you consider yourself a very active person with experience in outdoor adventuring, you should try one of Paragon Adventures more complex tours. Step outside your comfort zone and sign up for a wild caving program! For those who have never hiked underground, choose the Cave Sample tour. This adventure takes you 200 feet below the surface with a combination of downward hiking and rappelling. An optional route allows you to squeeze through tunnels to get to the awe-inspiring Great Room. Though the Cave Traverse program is also ideal for first timers, you will encounter more challenges along this route.
