Visiting the Postojna cave - Postojna cave entrance

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.

A visit to Postojna Cave is a special experience, as an electric train takes visitors to their hour and a half visit to the cave. From there, guides accompany visitors as they walk amongst magnificent creations of nature.

Outside Postojna Cave, visitors can refresh themselves with tasty food and drinks. They can treat themselves to other experiences or visit points of interest such as Predjama Castle. In any case, visitors can remember their visit to the cave when they arrive home with a book or other souvenir which are available in the stores just outside the cave.
