Accessibility and cancellations
Share mobility, step-free access and other support needs before booking. Walking distances, vehicle access and suitable alternatives are checked for your group; the enquiry limit of 50 people is a planning limit, not one vehicle’s capacity. Reserve tracks can be rough and short walks uneven. Cave climbs and steep routes require a separate suitability discussion. Wildlife viewing is from a respectful distance.
