History
Description
Fulford Cave is a wild cave, which is considered to be a beginner's cave,
as it does not require technical climbing.
We had a look at the map and the pictures on the web and would call it a true
wild cave.
It is on a remote spot, not easy to reach, and at an altitude of almost 3,000m
asl.
This has the advantage that only a few visitors will find the cave.
Nevertheless we must recommend appropriate equipment, helmet, multiple lamps,
good shoes, appropriate clothes.
Always cave with the return in mind and never cave alone.
And above all: tell someone where you went and when you will be back.
Because of the height the cave requires some physical fitness.
