A forest in a collapsed cave
About Welchman Hall Gully
Welchman Hall Gully is a deep, green ravine formed where the roof of a cave collapsed, and an easy paved path, three-quarters of it wheelchair friendly, leads through its tropical forest. It is known as the home of the grapefruit, and green monkeys are most often seen between 10.30am and noon. It opens every day from 9am to 4pm, and from 3 November to 30 April there is a guided tour at 10.30am on weekdays.
