Silica ice cave + Zádiel canyon
Silica ice cave is a must for those who want to observe where local history, geography and archeology meet. Treat yourself with some serious cave and canyon sites.
Have you ever been to a karst mountain park? Fairytale-like fields of greenness and covered secrets where you wouldn’t even expect them. Not many people come here, though.This is an incredible chance to encounter a hidden gem of Eastern Slovakia. We’ll stop by an extraordinary UNESCO cave and peek around its entrance. The deepest-lying ice cave in the country and Europe itself – Silica cave, of more than 100 meters depth. Take a look at dragon’s den if you dare. The cave is also infamously known for human sacrifices during the bronze age.
Guess what, this trip is actually 1+1. After the cave short visit we won’t stop. Have you heard of the biggest canyon of Slovakia? There you go, Zádiel awaits only the chosen ones. And you have become the one. We’ll hike to places where you’ll achieve another level of landscape views. A spectrum of colors. What’s up with all those Slovak meadows?
