About
Quick facts: The cave system has one of the largest underground gorges in the world, with a canyon over 145 meters deep. It houses an underground river that has been shaping the rock formations for thousands of years.
Highlights: The voice inside the cave can be heard miles away thanks to its unique natural acoustics. The underground river produces a sound that resembles a deep roar. Crossing suspension bridges and walking among huge halls with stalactites and impressive empty drops makes it feel like exploring another planet.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable, non-slip footwear because the floor can be wet and slippery.
- Do not forget a light jacket. The temperature inside is constantly around 12°C.
- Take the opportunity to take photos on the Srednja Velika Dolina bridge, which has a spectacular view of the canyon.
- Book your ticket online to avoid long lines and secure your spot on the guided tour.
