Inside the Gupteshwor cave near Davis Falls.

Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave is a limestone cave across the road from Davis Falls. A spiral staircase leads down to a shrine with a naturally formed Shiva lingam, worshipped by Hindu pilgrims. Past the shrine, a slippery passage continues to a chamber where you can see the water of Davis Falls rushing through the rock. Photography is not allowed in the shrine area. Wear shoes with grip; the lower passage is damp.
