This is steep, rocky, but not overly loose, so eminently ridable but extra care in damp and wet. The majority is smooth limestone and can be very slippery when wet.
The tunnels themselves challenge the eyes to adjust but it's too quick a change - so you have to feel your way.

Fine when climbing but would recommend lights if descending through the tunnels
