Bakngeb River Cave is a 4km subterranean river located in in the hilly portions of Brgy Bakngeb Sitio. Lacohon in Tboli South Cotabato. Bakngeb has a huge cave entrance with high arched chambers inside. Unlike most subterranean rivers, Bakngeb is surprisingly well lighted thanks to the roof slits and that huge cave entrance.  These slits permit light to illuminate most parts of the cave. Bats inhabit some of the darker, higher portions of this cave.  Water flowing into this river is believed to be from an underground water table. The snakelike river runs inside the cave and goes to the entrance’s shallow river pool.  Read More:  https://hikersitch.com/featured/raft-swim-eat-sleep-tboli-bakngeb.html
