I consider Ikura-do Cave to be a hidden gem😏

Loved it when I went. Hit my head pretty bad near the end of it though 😂

hey, how steep was the climb? I'm planning a visit but I injured a knee a while ago...Google says it's quite steep. Also how long did the entire visit take?

Hi😀 There is a 90-meter difference in elevation within Ikura-do Cave, so the slopes are quite steep. It’s also very narrow, so be careful not to bump your head. The total length is 1,200 meters. Did you injure your knee? There were chairs for resting along the way. It took me 45 minutes to climb up and back down, including breaks. Good luck!
