- Die Marble Arch Caves (irisch Uaimheanna na hÁirse Marmair, dt. Marmorbogenhöhlen) liegen im Kalksteinareal des County Fermanagh bei in Nordirland. Das südwestliche Gebiet ist für die und für das Sandsteinplateau der Cuilcagh Mountain bekannt, das die Landschaft bis auf etwa 670 m über NN anhebt. Das Wetter wird vom nur 56 km entfernten Atlantik beeinflusst. Im Moorland der Cuilcagh Mountain dringt der Regen in den Torf ein und erreicht nur sehr verzögert die Flüsse. Während des Sommers sind die Flüsse wasserarm, aber nach schwerem Niederschlag strömt eine große Menge Wasser die Hänge herab, wo der Torf den darunter liegenden Sandstein bedeckt. Sie laufen von dort in die unterirdischen Gänge der Marble Arch Caves, die seit 1895 erforscht werden und 2004 zum europäischen Geopark erklärt wurden. Ein Teil der Höhlen wird mit Booten befahren.

- The Marble Arch Caves are a series of natural limestone caves located near the village of Florencecourt in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The caves are named after the nearby Marble Arch, a natural limestone arch at the upstream end of Cladagh Glen under which the Cladagh River flows.The caves are formed from three rivers draining off the northern slopes of Cuilcagh mountain, which combine underground to form the Cladagh. On the surface, the river emerges from the largest karst resurgence in Ireland, and one of the largest in the United Kingdom.At 11.5 kilometres (7.1 mi) the Marble Arch Caves form the longest known cave system in Northern Ireland, and the karst is considered to be among the finest in the British Isles.
