It can be reached from the Sögütlü Plateau of the Morokot Village after a half an hour walk. It is a spring type of fossil cave. It was developed over a pronounced fault within the Malm-Lower Cretaceous limestones; and it has a meandering structure. The floor is covered with pebbles; sand and debris. Water leaks from the ceiling and the last point of the cave during rainy seasons. It is entirely dry in arid seasons. Bats were seen; particularly guano deposits are abundant. It was explored by MTA in 1991. |
