Great Douk Cave
Great Douk Cave is in The Yorkshire Dales National Park in England.
Great Douk Cave is situated in a large hollow close to Ingleborough that is accessible via a steep footpath. There is also a well fitted out pothole close by.
A spectacular waterfall issues from the mouth of Great Douk Cave that is a favourite of photographers, a popular view is fairly easy to achieve while perhaps a more interesting view is achieveable by risking wet feet or worse by crossing the stream but beware of slippery rocks.
