Hiking
At approximately 1340 m, these caves are the second longest system of ancient rock caves in Europe. The entrance is open and accessible to everyone. There are ropes, but be warned that this is a dangerous undertaking without a guide.
Finding the entrance between countless large rocks is not easy. Look for yellow markings on the rocks. They will lead you there.

Hiking
The first entrance to the cave system is somewhat inconspicuous between larger rocks at the lower edge of the scree field. Two ropes allow you to climb into the first chamber of the grotto. From there, ropes mark the way to one of the exits. I found five more rope-secured entrances/exits in the scree field. Some of the shafts are very narrow, but still passable. A flashlight is necessary, a helmet is recommended, claustrophobia rather not. A very exciting place for cave enthusiasts.
