A waterfall and cave system in the hills above Christiana, Manchester. The walk passes through fern-rich forest before entering a limestone cave where bats roost in the upper chambers, then drops to the falls and a swimming hole. One of Manchester's hidden gems, rarely visited by tourists and best explored with a local guide arranged in Christiana.
