Snapleg Cave (Skyrim)

Snapleg Cave is a location in Skyrim, located between Ivarstead and Riften.

It is a small cave, housing several witches and hags. It features a cooking pot,an alchemy Lab and an arcane Enchanter. Several spiders and a giant spider also dwell inside the cave, protecting the witches. Towards the "end" of the cave, there is a Hagraven and several random loot chests.

There is also a Spriggan locked in a cage, which if freed, will not turn hostile and will attempt to leave the dungeon to return to a clearing outside Eldergleam Sanctuary. Various Alchemy Ingredients can be found here including Fly Amanita, Slaughterfish Egg, Slaughterfish Scales, and Spider Eggs.
