Location
A short drive from the village is followed by a 20 minute walk down an easy path to very near the foot of the valley. The entrance is located in a cliff face 10m above and to the left of the path.
Description
The narrow entrance leads to a low dusty passage which continues left into a 5m flat out crawl. To the left is the guano covered slippery slope to Bat Roost Aven where there is a large bat colony. The way on is to the right through Fossil Passage to High Aven and the terminal passage. From the crawl onwards the cave walls are full of fossils.
