The entrance to the Labyrinth is accessed via a gravel slope with an approximate half mile walk inside the caverns on gravel paths. The walking speed is preset to link in with the timings of the underground show and is a steady walk of about 1.5mph. There are three steps into the boat and three steps out of the boat inside the caverns. The underground caverns have a low level of lighting.
For most of the time underground, most people will be able to walk upright except for very tall visitors who may have to stoop in places. There are 2 low tunnels of approximately 5 metres in length that are walked through twice, where most adults and taller children will have to duck down.
Wheelchair access into the Labyrinth is unavailable due to the lack of a suitable route for a wheelchair accessible emergency exit.
Prams and pushchairs are not allowed in the Labyrinth.
No dogs are allowed underground other than guide dogs which are allowed at their owner’s risk. Please talk to us about the conditions which your guide dog will encounter.

There are 7 mythical stories hidden around the maze to be found and enjoyed. There is a resting area at each story comprising of a wooden bench. The stories can be enjoyed in Welsh or English. The maze covers approximately 100 metres2.
