Istállós-kő is one of the famous mountains of Hungary. At 958,1 meters (3,143 ft) above sea level, it is the second-highest peak of the Bükk Mountains and the fourth-highest of all mountains in Hungary. Prior to 2014, Istállós-kő ranked first in the region in terms of altitude, but according to recent surveys, that position belongs to the summit of Szilvási-kő with an elevation of 960,715 meters (3,151,952 ft). By crossing a road a few hundred meters long from the town of Szilvásvárad we can easily find a small cave located inside the mountain range.
In 1911, Pál Roskó was the first to uncover the Istállós-k cave. The cave, which has a lengthy history of 30,000-40,000 years, has become a famous archaeological site with incredibly stunning ruins. The bones and tusks of cave bears and bison Bison latifrons, stone tools, and bones, particularly a Stone Age fireplace currently on exhibit in the Hungarian National Museum, are among the riches.
