Diviacia priepast, Cave entrance in Rožňava District, Slovakia.

Diviacia priepast is a vertical cave entrance set into the limestone landscape of Slovak Karst. The system connects multiple chambers through narrow passages with underground streams flowing between them.

The cave entrance received national nature monument status in 1986 as part of the larger Aggtelek Karst and Slovak Karst complex. This protected designation recognized the geological importance of the region for scientific study.

The cave entrance serves as a research site for geologists and speleologists studying the formation processes of karst landscapes in Central Europe.

Exploring the cave requires specialized equipment and permits from the Slovak Cave Administration. The entrance remains closed during winter months, so timing your visit needs careful planning.

The mineral deposits and rock formations at the entrance allow scientists to trace the geological evolution of the Carpathian Mountains. This natural record reveals how the mountain range developed over millions of years.
