Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A relatively small cave entrance is just big enough for a comparatively small person to enter (note 1). SITUATION: Close to Ghar –>Hammam and high up in a ravine (without known name) which is cut into a hill of probably jurassic limestone, the Kuh-e / Kohe Bibicheh Baran (note 2) which lies approximately 30 km west-north-west of Farah town (N32°22'37”: E62°07'10”, WGS84). A few metres below the cave issues water from a spring.A relatively small cave entrance is just big enough for a comparatively small person to enter (note 1).
