How do bats find their way into caves more than 100 meters down?

How do they get there? Why do they get there? Is there any advantage to being that deep into the cave? These are the burning questions I’m asking myself while not doing my schoolwork.

They get there using echolocation, essentially they have their own built in radar so the lack of light doesnt hinder them. Caves are great locations because they are sheltered, secured, and the deeper into a cave you go, the warmer it gets, and the less exposed it is to the elements by the entrance. No predators can get you unless they can see in the dark and also reach the ceiling of the roof.
