Romania is home to one of the most diverse and fascinating underground worlds in Europe. From the frozen cathedrals of the Scărișoara Ice Cave to the prehistoric mysteries of Peștera cu Oase, this section is dedicated to the silent beauty of our limestone labyrinths.
What you will find here:
- Deep Dives into Romania’s most famous and hidden caverns.
- Unique Footage and images of stalactites, stalagmites, and underground rivers.
- Geological & Historical Insights regarding the formation and the legends of these stone sanctuaries.
- Do Not Touch: Cave formations (speleothems) take thousands of years to grow. Even the natural oils from your skin can stop their growth forever.
- Protect the Wildlife: Many caves are home to protected bat colonies. Keep noise levels low and avoid shining bright lights directly at them.
- Cave Safety: Never enter a wild cave alone. Always use a helmet, bring at least two independent light sources, and check if a permit is required for protected sites.
