The cave is situated in the middle of the cliff of the mountain.

30-40 minutes are enough to get up the Caves. 

There is one rock patch of 15 to 20 feet where you essentially need rope and climbing instruments. 4 hours are enough for the complete visit. 

There are 2-3 natural caves here. In some of the Caves, the rooms and water tanks are designed. There is no religious sculptures or statues found in the Caves.

The main attraction of the Kambre is a small rock-cut tunnel of 15 to 20 feet, which takes you into the biggest cave.

We can see the beautiful view of the Thokarwadi Dam backwater. 

There is no food and water on the trek route but it can be made available in the base village of Kambre.
