Gombasek Cave, Underground cave system in Slovak Karst National Park, Slovakia.
The cave extends 1,525 meters beneath limestone formations, featuring white stalactites, stalagmites and hollow flowstone straws throughout its passages.
Local spelunkers discovered the cave in 1951, and by 1955 authorities opened a 285-meter section for public exploration and scientific research.
The cave forms part of the Caves of Aggtelek Karst and Slovak Karst UNESCO World Heritage site, representing geological processes under different climate conditions.
Visitors can take a guided 530-meter tour lasting 30 minutes through the cave system, with temperatures remaining constant between 9.0 and 9.4 degrees Celsius.
The cave contains thin soda straw stalactites measuring up to 3 meters in length, with some formations having a diameter of only half a centimeter.
