Bystrianska Cave

Located in the western section of Low Tatra National Park, Bystrianska Cave extends through 3,531 meters of limestone formations with a vertical span of 99 meters.

Discovered in 1923, the cave became accessible to visitors in 1939, with additional sections found in 1950 and connected to the main cave system in 1960.

The cave sections received names based on their formations, including the Treasury, Hell, Catacombs, and the Inferior and Superior Room of the Partisans.

The cave maintains temperatures between 5.7 and 7.2 degrees Celsius with humidity levels of 92 to 98 percent, requiring visitors to wear appropriate clothing.

Since 1971, the cave has functioned as a treatment center for children with respiratory conditions through specialized speleotherapy procedures.
