Introduction

Most of the natural caves in Wales are to be found in the South where the limestone outcrops around the fringes of the South Wales Coalfield. There are, however, some significant caves to be found in North East Wales.

The lengthy major systems of the South are formed in the Northern Outcrop of the limestone that runs roughly from Ammanford in the West to Abergavenny in the East, parallel to, or along the Heads of the Valleys Road.

Traditionally, and by convention, newly discovered caves are given names in the Welsh Language rather than English.
