Explore Caves, Dinosaurs & Welsh History in Bannau Brycheiniog

About:
The National Showcaves Centre for Wales is one of Wales’s most popular visitor attractions, offering a magical mix of underground wonder and outdoor discovery. Set within the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, the centre invites visitors to explore three extraordinary caves—Dan-yr-Ogof, Cathedral Cave and Bone Cave—each with its own story to tell. The site brings together natural history, archaeology, and family fun in one immersive destination.

What they offer:

  • Dan-yr-Ogof: a vast show cave with twisting tunnels, underground lakes, and ancient rock formations

  • Cathedral Cave: dramatic chambers and waterfalls inside a breathtaking natural space

  • Bone Cave: where archaeologists uncovered ancient remains dating back thousands of years

  • A Dinosaur Park with over 200 life-sized dinosaur models

  • The Shire Horse Centre and Farm with rare breeds and activities for younger visitors

  • Iron Age Village, indoor play zones, museum displays, picnic areas and café

Why we love them:
This attraction has something for everyone—from awe-inspiring caves to roaring dinosaurs. It’s perfect for families, school groups and explorers of all ages. The combination of science, history and imagination makes it one of the most memorable days out in Bannau Brycheiniog.
