Šupljara Cave

Špilja Šupljara

A limestone cave in the cliff of the Lower Lakes, with stone steps leading up through the cave to the cliff top, overlooking Lake Kaluđerovac and the boardwalks.

Šupljara Cave is located in the middle of the Lower Lakes, with its entrance facing the water. Its interior is high and spacious, and legend says a hermit once lived here. From the lakeside boardwalk, you can climb the slippery stone steps inside the cave to reach the cliff-top trail and viewpoints above, or go the other way, from top to bottom. The cave is dim and the floor is slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. It is included in the admission and is a small highlight of the Lower Lakes that many visitors miss.
