This cave is much more fun and impressive than nearby Crazy Paving Stone Cave – bring a good headlamp! Stairs descend into a large open cathedral, and this is as far as most people will go. But if you have a good headlamp, you can head to the back and climb up to an upper level (watch out that you don’t put your face in some glowworms), and you can also explore several side passages and tunnels. If you like caves, this is a great way to pass some time, and this is a particularly good option if it’s raining.
