    If you drove to Moria gate , then you should drive the 3km to visit the cave. The first one is closed until June 2023 but you can still visit the 2nd cave

    Not amazing caves but may as well see them since you are here. The second one is biggest and has some interesting side passages if you keep your eyes open. Nothing complicated so no worries of getting lost.

    2 cool caves!! Spiders everywhere in the smaller cave but it's fine as there is a clear path and rope that indicates where you can go. Second cave is really cool, big and climb up the steep part at the back to explore!

    Great caves, didn’t see any spiders and went exploring quite far in the second cave. Really impressive, worth the 10-15extra mins on gravel road.

    Absolutely amazing!! Go see these caves considering you already drove up the gravel road to see the arches. Quiet and dark, but a very cool experience. The signs say spiders (and I absolutely hate spiders), but we didn’t see one and went deep into both caves. Worth checking out.

    Awesome caves! Pretty big, really quiet! Take a good flashlight to get the best of it.

    I wouldn’t recommend it for people who are afraid of spiders. My friends went in there and found it spectacular, but I couldn’t go inside the caves, because of my phobia.
