Location
The cave is in an isolated limestone hill between the H3228 and the river, 2 km north of the Wang Lang railway station. Park in a pleasant grass area, with a large metal roofed Sala. A friendly monk showed us up the steps to the cave entrance, switched on the lighting, and came into the first part of the cave.
Description
Tham Sata Ban Khuha is an interesting maze of phreatic passage, up to 15m wide and 20m high in places. In a previous geological period, the cave probably took the full flow of the Mae Nam Kwae Noi. There was a monks retreat in one of the smaller passages. There were bats in one area, but most of the cave was clean, well lit, with interesting passage shapes.
