The Na Pomezí Caves

The Na Pomez Caves are the Czech Republic's biggest accessible cave complex. However, the tour lasts no longer than 45 minutes. There are several lofty and tight hallways, as well as smaller domes. It's pretty chilly down there — only 7.7 degrees Celsius – so bring a hat. You may visit all year, however during the colder months, make a reservation.

The Na Pomez Caves are located 2 kilometers north of the hamlet of Lipová-lázn. The cave system was recognized in part as early as 1936, but it wasn't until 1949 that the caverns were fully investigated. The process to make them available to the public began in 1950 and was completed in 1955. The visitors' gallery is 390 meters long in total. The Na Pomez Caves are the biggest cave system in the Czech Republic, formed by marble dissolution, i.e. crystalline limestone. Narrow and, in some cases, high fissure aisles with smaller domes at intersections are frequent.
