Skelska Cave

Skelska Cave is a natural cave system in Sevastopol composed of limestone with several underground chambers connected by passages. These passages extend deep into the mountain, creating a network of interconnected spaces.

Archaeological finds inside the cave show that humans were present in ancient times, leaving behind tools and other artifacts. These discoveries document a long history of human activity at this location.

The cave's name reflects local traditions and the importance this place holds in regional stories passed down through generations. Visitors can still observe how local inhabitants regard the cave as part of their cultural memory.

Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and move carefully on the uneven underground terrain, as passages through chambers can be slippery. Guides provide safety equipment and accompany groups through the cave system.

The cave maintains a constant internal temperature year-round, creating specific conditions for mineral formations and specialized cave-dwelling species. These stable conditions allow unique geological formations and a specialized fauna to develop.
