Torca del Carlista, Natural cave in Karrantza Valley, Spain.

The Torca del Carlista extends deep into limestone formations within the Karrantza Valley, forming the largest underground chamber in Europe.

The cave remained undiscovered until local speleologists conducted systematic explorations of the Karrantza Valley's geological formations in the twentieth century.

Local communities maintain protective measures for the cave system while supporting scientific research and controlled speleological expeditions.

Access to the cave requires professional speleological equipment and expert guidance, with permits obtained through regional authorities.

The central chamber measures 170 meters in length, 245 meters in width, and reaches heights of 125 meters.
