Bat Cave (Chamere Gufa)
Chamere Gufa
A cave with thousands of bats hanging from its ceiling. The exit requires climbing through a narrow rock crevice, which adds a sense of adventure.
The Bat Cave is near Mahendra Cave. Once inside the main cave, shine a flashlight upward to see dense clusters of horseshoe bats hanging upside down from the ceiling. Visitors can return the way they came, or climb out through the narrow adventure exit at the far end, using hands and feet. This takes about 10 to 15 minutes, and larger people should be careful. The cave is slippery and dimly lit. Flashlights can be rented at the entrance, or you can hire a guide. Admission is about several hundred rupees, subject to change on site.
