Measuring almost 7 metres in length, it is one of the largest free hanging stalactites in the world. This is a truly wondrous sight. In order to preserve the delicate ecosystem of the cave numbers are limited per tour and per year. The cave tour takes approximately one hour. Access to the cave is via a courtesy coach from Bruach na hAille Restaurant. « less
