History
[edit | edit source]Keshet Cave is a remnant of a large collapsed karst cave and is a narrow strip of rock overhanging a deep abyss.[1][2][3]
Accessed from Route 8993, the cave is a tourist attraction. It has also attracted the attention of rock climbers. At the end of 2012 it was opened for sports climbing,[4][5][6] however the climbing website 26crags.com had the info about the cave replaced with the notice that rock climbing was prohibited in the area.[7]
