HOW TO VISIT THE MINES

All visits to the Alderley Edge mines have to be arranged with a DCC member. 
To find out more, follow the links from this page.

	If you have little or no real experience of mining, we can take you on a guided trips.  For more information, read our page for organised groups.			If you are experienced in visiting caves and mines, you may still want to read the general guidance or jump straight to the details of trips for more experienced visitors.
	Open Days are a good opportunity to visit the mines and find out more.  Read about details of future Open Days and how to book trips.			For visits by Scouts (including Beavers and Cubs), please refer to the special page for Scout organisers.
	For more about caving or visiting mines elsewhere with the DCC, other than at Alderley Edge, visit our caving web pages.			Specialised trips for geologists are now available, go to the geological visits page for details.
	For filming, please go to this page.			Other planned trips may be held from time to time, go to this page to see a list and make a booking.

For information about parking, refreshments, etc., have a look at our page about the facilities on the site.
