Geocache Description:

Llangattock Cave Entrances: Hard Rock Cafe

A series of caches on the Llangattock escarpment located near some of the major cave system entrances.

Ogof Daren y Cilau is an extensive cave system inside Mynydd Llangattwg. The Daren Cilau system has over 28km of cave passage and exploration in the further reaches often requires cavers and cave divers to camp in the system. The system contains two camps with the imaginative names of 'The Restaurant at the end of the Universe' and 'The Hard Rock Cafe'. A trip to the Hard Rock Cafe is typically a 5 hour caving trip via the arduous entrance series, located near the cache GC1279G - Llangattock Cave Entrances: Ogof Daren y Cilau . Thankfully you will find it a lot quicker to reach this cache by foot on Mynydd Llangattwg.

The Hard Rock Cafe is located at: daren.daren_lower_series.dckings.26

The cache is located on Mynydd Llangattwg, and is not located at the above location, nor is it hidden underground.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. The weather here can be very changeable and you need to be prepared if it changes. It's not a nice place to be in foul weather.
2. Cache within your abilities.
3. Caves – Caving is not a dangerous sport if carried out by trained and responsible cavers following recognised safety procedures. However, to the uninitiated caves can be dangerous places. You are advised not to enter the caves without the proper instruction in the techniques and equipment necessary.
