Location

This hill is just north of the road to the west of Ban Tha Roengrom. A track heads north, signed to the Tham India priest's campsite. As the track passes the first limestone hill the cave is on the right. There is a parking area outside the cave. Martin Ellis - 29/09/2019

Description

Martin Ellis - 29/09/2019

The cave has seen a lot of development, with a concrete floor and steps, but now appears to be abandoned as a temple cave. There is a seated white Buddha inside and the floor is kept swept. The main passage is about 20m long to the Buddha and there are a couple of side passages on the left which lead up to skylights. On the right there a short low section leads to a second, small chamber with no way on.
