Description

Mozrov is said to be the most beautiful cave of the area. It is closed in order to protect the speleothems from vandalism and can only be visited by appointment and with a local guide. The visit is only possible for cavers, as there is a 30 m drop into the cave. Also, there was a major collapse in 2012, and the remaining cave is not considered safe. We list this cave to warn you, as it is listed on various tourist sites in the internet. It is not a tourist cave and it is not suitable for a casual visitor!
