Location

The cave is located on the limestone hill above Wat Thongtham Tham Khao Din. From the entrance to Tham Khao Din take the path to the left for about 50m and then take a very steep, indistinct path up the hill for around 30m to the small entrance. Martin Ellis - 02/11/2019

The small entrance opens up into a large airy passage 10m wide by 20m high through the mountain. The second, larger entrance is high in a cliff and has fine views of Khao Phanom Bencha. The cave is used by monks from the wat for meditation.
