Neversink Pit, also known as Neversink Cave, is an amazing limestone sinkhole that’s located in Jackson County, Alabama. Not only is Neversink Pit the most photographed sinkhole in Alabama, it’s also one of the most photographed sinkholes in the entire world – mostly due to its beautiful fern-covered ledges and majestic waterfalls.
