Carlswark Cavern is a cave which has a sense of adventure about it. With an imposing but easy entrance, the cavern features walking, crawling, wet sections, stalagmites and stalactites and fossilised oysters beds.The entrance to Carlswark Cavern is a small chasm on the ground which looks pretty scary to the novice. First, you have to climb down into the chasm and follow a narrow tunnel down into the main cave. From here, you go forward on hands and knees until making your way into the main cave where you can stand up and gaze in fascination at the fossilised oyster beds which stretch along the roof of the cave.
