Itinerary

Point 1Bled/Ljubljana/Bohinjska Bela

If you need a transfer we will meet in Bled or Ljubljana, otherwise at the starting point.

Point 2Meeting & ascend

At the starting point we’ll meet with the guide and begin our journey. Entrance is located at 1008 m altitude on a slope of forest mountain plateau Jelovica.
 
When we turn right from the asphalt road into the forest road, we still drive 2km until we finally park our vehicles and prepare for an one hour steep up-slope walk.
 
This is a fairly steep up slope, not suitable for people with heart problems or women in high pregnancy.
 
After reaching the cave entrance, we earn a pause for snacks & refreshment.
When we are all fed and set, then follows a muddy, but exciting cave tour, where we witness very beautiful, breath-taking subterranean impressions. There is only walking involved, no climbing, no crawling, no rappelling, if you’ve chosen the cave exploration without the abyss descent.

Point 3Optional - Abyss descend

If you’ve chosen the exploration tour with the descent into the abyss, the lowest point of the cave, then be prepared for an extraordinary experience. 

After entering the cave we will pass the abyss. This is the lowest point of the cave so we’ll need to put on the additional gear and attach ourselves to the rope. We will be climbing down exploring the most hidden places and secret chambers of the cave. 

Guides take the best care of you but please let us know in advance if you’ve ever experienced claustrophobia or if you have any medical issues that should be addressed. 

Point 4Return

Cave exploration tour ends at the meeting point, please make sure you’ve made arrangements with us for your transportation back
