Location
2 km south of Ban Mae Lana, on the northern edge of the same doline as Tham Mae Lana, just over the brow of the hill, and 300 m before Tham Pakarang, a signpost next to the 4WD track points to an indistinct path leading to the cave entrance hidden behind enormous boulders 150 m to the west.
Description
The large entrance chamber slopes steeply downwards over large bouldes. The lower sections have some interesting erratic forms tucked away in moist crevices, but no obvious cave pearls despite the cave's name. A narrow passage at the back leads to a find crystal flow, but quickly becomes impassable.
