Information

Deep, large rockhole. Massive overhang with small opening - be careful driving to close to the edge as the overhang is some 5 or more metres in sections.

Wonderful cave and well worth a visit. There is an entrance under the ledge to the north of the actual hole. The access is a hands and knees affair but once inside there is plenty of room to stand and walk around. There are many fossils and even a few stalagmites and stalactites to see.
