Emergency services were called to a popular Lake District adventure centre after a customer became stuck in its caving experience.

Several fire engines, mountain rescue, paramedics and police were called yesterday, April 22, in the afternoon to Kong Adventures on Heads Road in Keswick.

It took six fire crews five hours to release the person. It is understood that they have hyperextension joints which led them getting into difficulty.

Fire crews from Keswick, Penrith, Workington, Maryport and Windermere were involved.

Penrith Fire Station posted at 9.40pm on Facebook: “Penrith crews have just returned from this complex multi-agency rescue. We wish the gentleman a full speedy recovery.”

Police closed the road while dealing with the incident.
