Rejoice, man, because you've come to the right place! This cave is considered one of the best archaeological sites in Poland. It's part of a larger cave complex (over 200 meters of chambers and corridors).

But because it's so valuable, there's also a price list – you can visit it, but for a fee. Tours are for groups, and tickets can be purchased at the cave ticket office – more here: ojcow.pl/informator-turystyczny/jaskinie/jaskinia-ciemna-2

guided tour, tickets should be purchased at a point 400 meters towards Ojców, so it is best to visit it from that side
