About Sump one Tourist Trip

Intermediate, cave itself has nothing difficult but entrance rift can be hard work when tired.

Quite a vertical complex system. Well decorated. For an intermediate caver there are plentiful options to challenge the skilled. Enjoyable exposed free climbs, with a very sporting entrance rift. Some long wet crawls, abseil able pitches.
