The side of the hill is like swiss cheese, Multiple short caves to be found.
There is about 135m of passage although some of this is very difficult (take my word for it... i am only 145lbs, some area i still question how i was able to fit.).
If you are claustrophobic, this place is not for you.

Originally these caves displayed examples of white flowstones, stalagmites, moonmilk, as well as long-eared bat which resided within. The main opening here reduces quickly to more confined spaces within. A few small, broken stalactites might be seen. A little downstream and above, old ladders lead to other small opening.
The main cave, is the easiest to access. It also has the largest chamber. Other caves offer different rock formations. A few of the other caves vary from easy to access to quite tight to squeeze into.
Larger caves can be found on the other side of river, these are gated to preserve the special rock formations inside.
