Alfred Caves

The trek is not for the faint-hearted, but it rewards adventurers with the sight of unique stalagmite and stalactite formations. The caves are particularly famous for the swiftlet birds that nest inside them. These nests are highly valued and are auctioned after the birds have left, making them a sought-after delicacy in Chinese cuisine. Visitors are advised to respect the natural habitat and avoid littering or causing damage, as the forest department enforces strict regulations to preserve this untouched beauty.
