It lies to the south of the road running to Azdavay; 3-4 km east of Pinarbasi. It has a very large elliptical entrance with a height of 6 m and width of 3-4 m. 20 m after the entrance is reached to a small gallery. In the gallery of the final zone; there is a catwalk in the ceiling with an air currency; but not allowing anyone to pass.
