History

Description

Alikadam Cave is named after the nearby village Alikadam. It is a through cave in a hill south of the village. There is a trail to both cave entrances, so you can cross the cave in both directions. The trail is rather rough, but at some difficult places there are wooden ladders which were created by the town government. The cave is an erosional cave created by the forces of the flowing water. The river forms a gorge, which is underground for some time.
