Cave in a Path

Cave in a Path
This is a unique spot, where a hole appears in the middle of the path. The hole is actually quite a large cave that goes quite deeply into the middle of the mountain. It can be walked the whole way in, until it reaches a pit where you are forced to stop.

Its a unique place and I am sure you will enjoy the exploration. A little bit further up you will find a peak which makes a great place for a lunch stop.

The beauty of this amazing walk is that you still get to hike quite a bit before you get to this cave.
