Cave Głęboka

Cave Głęboka, Natural cave in Podlesice, Poland.

Cave Głęboka is a cave in the limestone massif of Góra Zborów, entered through a former calcite mining pit called Lej Szpatowców. It has a length of 170 m and a vertical range of 12.5 m, with four openings created by mining; originally there were two. Above the entrance rise the Krucze Skały rocks and the Dwoista Baszta tower.

The cave was formed in limestone, but its shape was changed by mining. Before World War II, spar was extracted in the so-called Lej Szpatowców; after the war, in Komora Południowa. The miners left drill holes, broken flowstone and calcite blocks, and made four openings where there had been two.

The cave lies on the red-marked Szlak Orlich Gniazd trail linking Kraków and Częstochowa, and on the Ścieżka Przyrodnicza nature path through the Góra Zborów reserve. Guided tours lasting about 40 minutes start from the Centrum Dziedzictwa Przyrodniczego i Kulturowego Jury by the car park, where helmets are lent and tickets for the cave and reserve are sold.

The cave is shown only with a guide, on a tour of about 40 minutes, and only during the tourist season. Helmets are lent at the entrance, and tickets are sold at the Centrum Dziedzictwa Przyrodniczego i Kulturowego Jury by the car park on road 792 from Podlesice to Kotowice. The temperature stays at or below 8 °C, so bring warm clothing.

The cave shelters seven bat species that hide here during winter and hunt insects in warmer months. Visitors may occasionally spot individual bats clinging to walls, especially if they wait quietly near the entrances.
