Location
1 km south of Tham Luang, at the foot of Doi Nang Non. Turn off the main road 7.5 km south of Mae Sai and continue straight west through Ban Jong to Khun Nam Nang Non RFD station. The cave is situated in a small cliff in the slope above the Tham Sai Thong resurgence.
Description
The cave has a walk in entrance with an earth floor. After about 8 m the passage reduce to sub-human size with no draught. The cave could be extended by removing earth, but digging would probably be a waste of effort. However, the potential of getting into an active streamway might be an incentive. The cave seems to be an old resurgence, and seems to be in solid rock.
