What to wear and bring?

We recommend having a coat and dress for the season

Bunkers are usually 13°C /55°F so in the summer they feel cold and in the winter quite warm

Walking boots, sensible trainers, or comfortable walking shoes. Do not wear sandals or flip-flops

Some bunkers are damp, and trails to them can be muddy

Water or a drink, snacks, sunscreen (summertime), and photography is allowed

We have plenty of torches, but feel free to bring your own

How physically fit should I be to join a tour?

You don’t need to be an athlete nor do you have to have previous experience in exploring bunkers, but you must be physically fit and able to walk unaided on rough and uneven terrain, especially at night. There are trip hazards, low doorways and many ways to injure yourself and you enter all sites at your own risk. There will also be ladders and steep steps to contend with, sometimes in low-light situations.

People with a history of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases or pre-existing conditions are not compatible with physical activities.

Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exploring bunkers can be dangerous, so we need you at your best
