Facilities
There are two entrances to the cave on a hillside in a refuge. Although access to the cave is generally not permitted, limited entry for scientific research is granted. The area offers opportunities for wildlife observation, hiking, and photography.
A top activity is the viewing of the bats emerging from the cave during the summer. For about an hour at dusk, approximately 250,000 bats leave the cave to search for food. A viewing platform has been constructed to facilitate the viewing of the bats.
