From Active Muslims 🟢🟡🔴

Cheddar Gorge is England’s largest gorge, stretching for three miles, with cliffs rising nearly 400 feet (122 meters) high. It was formed roughly 1.2 million years ago during the last Ice Age, carved out by melting glaciers and ancient river. In 1903, the oldest, almost complete human skeleton in Britain, the 10,000 year old "Cheddar Man" was discovered in Gough’s Cave. We are heading to the birthplace of Cheddar cheese! Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company still matures its cheese inside these caves today - you can even purchase some to take home. 💺 **Limited spaces (private minibus): Please initially add yourself to the waitlist > wait for message > make payment > you'll be added to going list.** 🏷️ **Please note:** Priority is given to regular and reliable/new attendees for such events. *Why? At Active Muslims, we place great importance on attendance records and active participation in our regular events, such as our regular walks and hikes. We believe these activities offer attendees the chance to form meaningful and strong connections with like-minded individuals. [[why it matters](https://tinyurl.com/28sh83cn)].* ✊ *Reminder: Active Muslims is equally about focusing on the actual activity, in this case, it is a paced hike (and not a stroll), therefore it is advised to approach and attend these events with that [mindset](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBhPWpdIMKq/?igsh=MWVjdnZrdGZwd3dmYw==).* HIKE: 🔴/🟠: TBC 📏 20-25km 🏔️ Elev.

That you do not require special attention, medication or additional care. You are also responsible for your belonging at all times. Make sure to stay away from the edge of the cliffs and take extra care especially when descending. 🌐 **[@Active.Muslims](https://www.instagram.com/active.muslims)** *(Follow for latest events updates)* 🚦 **[Walk/Hike Levels:](https://www.instagram.com/share/reel/BBxV4zomeZ)** 🟢 Easy 🟡 Average 🟠 Moderate 🔴 Challenging ⚫ Very Challenging We’ll be tackling a route offering breathtaking, panoramic views of the Gorge. Look out for the herd of feral goats that live on the cliffs! They help maintain the landscape, alongside rare Soay sheep. J.R.R. Tolkien visited here on his honeymoon and cited the caves as the inspiration for Helm’s Deep in The Lord of the Rings.
