Catrinm visited on 24th Feb 2020 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 5 Access: 4 This cave is phenomenal and worth visiting. Quality of the paeliolithic to Neolithic rock art takes the breath away - from figurative to abstract ( or seemingly abstract) images. Some black lined combs which look like some form of counting.
Tour is 10 e three times a day - ring ahead to book but we only had 10 in February.
its better to experience the images when you get there but have posted postcard pics nonetheless.
