We are Underground Enthusiasts
Experience the underground like you never have before with the Bristol Exploration Club
The Bristol Exploration Club (BEC) is one of the major caving clubs in the United Kingdom. We cater for all forms of caving from novice trips, through sporting, through to advanced digging techniques.
Besides venturing into the great indoors we tend to be a sporty group and many of our members waste their time by climbing, mountain biking, and consuming vast quantities of Potholer in the Hunters Lodge.

The Belfry is the ideal place to stay on Mendip. We have guest cave keys available, are a short walk to the pub and a stay costs less than the local camp site.
“I couldn't have met so many nutters, characters, pissheads and selfless, generous rough diamonds in any other walk of life. Keep on digging.”
