The Underworld is an area of horizontal development at 1580m, around 160m deeper than the majority of the horizontal development in Steinbrückenhöhle. Access is from Gaffered.
Eeyore is a mud-floored stooping-height passage accessed by a slightly exposed greasy sideways climb at the top of the upwards-sloping traverse from the bottom of Trihang pitch, before the final pitch into the main Underworld level is reached. This levels off and continues for around 15m. At the end is a window into a large chamber, Kanga, with the floor sloping down steeply to the left.
A Y-hang and deviation gain access to a ledge perched at the top of the slope, where there is a Y-hang rebelay giving a clean hang down the slope to the floor. At this point there is a narrow tube in the far wall, which turns to the left and slopes upwards over loose powdery mud. After around 5m another chamber is reached; climbing down around a large wedged boulder reveals a narrow, unpromising-looking pitch-head, estimated at 10m [C2004-204-XX B].
