More about the place
Alma Cave is a stalactite cave near Moshav Alma in the Upper Galilee, and one of the longest and deepest in the Galilee. You enter it through a large sinkhole, and inside the trail is marked with metal rungs and reflectors, white arrows on the way down and red on the way back. Deep inside there is a large hall, and at the end of the route, slightly below the sign, a small pool of water between two large stalactites. In medieval tradition it is called the Cave of the Babylonians, and some consider it a holy site.
