History

Description

Salt Pond Cave is an extensive cave system located right north of the small settlement Salt Pond. From the Grocery Store "H.S.C." follow the road north for 600 m, where the trail to the cave starts.

This is an easy wild cave, bring two lamps for each participant and a helmet, if possible. The cave is on private property, so it is necessary to ask the owner for permission, unfortunately we could not find out who the owner is. We guess the best start is the grocery store.

Some websites talk of Salt Pond Caves, as there are actually two nearby caves. The second cave is located rather close to the Grocery Store. Follow the trail to the right of the road.
