The Postojna Cave system is the largest known cave system in Slovenia. There are longer caves in the world, but a visit to a cave such as Postojna deserves full attention due to the diversity of shapes, expansive cave areas, stalactite and stalagmite formations and water characteristics. What is especially noteworthy is that most of these various shapes and formations can be seen by every visitor, meaning tourists and not just cavers with special caving equipment. Well kept paths for tourists comprise the greater part of Postojna Cave, making it a "horizontal" cave. Thus a visit to the cave does not present any difficulties for most visitors.
In Slovenia there are almost 7,500 known and explored Karst caves. In addition to the Postojna Cave network, Planinska Cave and the cave under Predjama Castle, there are more than 20 caves open or partially opened to tourists (visits are possible under certain restrictions). Destination Karst is not only represented by Karst caves and other Karst phenomena: Destination Karst is a rapidly developing tourist resort situated in a geographical area where the Notranjska, Karst, Brkin, Vipava valley, Idrijsko-Cerkljansko and Rovtarsko regions join.
