The Natural Handicap Route is suitable for visitors who have time and are in good physical condition. This 2-kilometer visit follows the traditional exploration route, entering the cave through the great natural natural entrance. It goes down to more than 225 feet below the ground following steep and narrow trails, through a large and spacious passage called the main corridor. The course ends at the departure of the Big Room Road. Visitors (in good shape) wishing to do both courses can start from the Natural Intrance Route. Beneath the lights, along this path, we discover Bat Cave, Devil's Spring, Green Lake and Overlook Boneyard, a complex labyrinth of large eroded limestone rocks. By the way, Iceberg Rock, a rock of 200 ¥ 000 ¾ tons fell from the ceiling of the cave, thousands of years ago. During the season, you can take part in a guided tour conducted by the rangers.
