Neversink Pit, also known as Neversink, is a famous and deep sinkhole located near the town of Fackler in northeastern Alabama, in the Appalachian Plateau region. It is one of the most popular and frequently visited sinkholes in the United States. It's well known for its unique geological features.
The views from the top of the hole are incredible but it's mainly used by spelunkers (cave divers). Neversink is approximately 40 feet in diameter and reaches a depth of about 162 feet from the surface to the water level. The sinkhole is filled with groundwater, creating a unique diving environment. The cave system below the sinkhole is extensive, with underwater passages and chambers that divers can explore.
Access to Neversink Pit is restricted, and it is strongly recommended that only experienced cave divers with the proper training and equipment attempt to dive in the sinkhole. The sinkhole and its surrounding area may be on private property, so permission from landowners or authorities may be required for entry.
