On the road from Bukittinggi to Payakumbuh, these caves
extend deep into the mountainside. The domain of thousands
of bats which you won't see but only hear and sense as they
fly close over your head.
At the main entrance is a stone with an outline of an elephant
visible on its face. The coolness and damp air is refreshing
after the tropical heat outside.
The path through these caves leads out to the top of the
mountain from where it is quite panoramic. The drive up
to the hillside is itself worth making because of the variety
of the exquisite views along way.
