Belianska Cave

Belianska jaskyňa

The only cave in the Tatra mountains open to the public, rich in stalactites, stalagmites and underground lakes, and a good choice on rainy days.

Belianska Cave lies on the eastern side of the Belianske Tatras and has been open to visitors since 1882. It was one of the first caves in Slovakia to use electric lighting. The guided route is about 1 km and takes around 70 minutes, with many steps. The temperature inside stays at about 5 to 6°C year-round, so bring a jacket. Inside are a stalactite 'waterfall', white stalagmites and a concert hall, which occasionally hosts concerts. From the car park it is about a 20-minute uphill walk to the entrance, and tours depart on the hour.
