Öreg-kői No. 2. Pothole

The Öreg-kői No. 2 Pothole forms part of an underground network extending through limestone formations in the Gerecse Mountains at 375 meters elevation.

This cave system developed over millions of years through water erosion of the local limestone, creating deep vertical shafts and narrow passages.

Hungarian speleologists regularly document and study this cave system, contributing to the understanding of karst formations in Central Europe.

Access to the pothole requires proper caving equipment, technical expertise, and permission from local authorities due to safety considerations.

The cave maintains a constant temperature of 10 degrees Celsius throughout the year, making it an important hibernation site for several bat species.
