About Škocjan Caves
Škocjan
The Škocjan Caves are a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for their extraordinary karst formations and underground rivers. The caves are part of the Škocjan Caves Regional Park and are one of the largest and most significant cave systems in Europe. The caves are renowned for their vast underground chambers, impressive stalactites, stalagmites, and unique geological formations. One of the most remarkable features of the Škocjan Caves is the Rakov Škocjan valley, through which the Raka River flows, creating dramatic cascades and deep gorges. You can explore the caves on guided tours that take them through the main passages, including the Great Hall and the bridged chasm, a massive, 40-meter-wide canyon. The Škocjan Caves are considered a masterpiece of nature and a must-visit for those interested in geology and underground wonders.
