Idrisovskaya Cave, Historic cave in Salavat District, Russia

Located 45 meters above the Yuryuzan River, this limestone cave features a rectangular entrance measuring 2.4 meters wide and 3.8 meters high.

First documented by Peter Simon Pallas, the cave contains archaeological artifacts dating from the Mesolithic period through the Iron Age, including stone tools and animal bones.

Ancient red ochre paintings on the cave walls represent significant artistic expressions from the Mesolithic period, though modern graffiti now overlays many original drawings.

Access to the cave requires a 1.5-kilometer walk from Shaitan-Kudey camping site, with guided tours available from the nearby village of Idrisovo.

The cave maintains a constant temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and contains mondmilch formations on its ceiling, resembling cottage cheese in appearance.
