Caves of Javoříčko, Limestone cave system in Luká, Czech Republic
The Javoříčko Caves extend over 4 kilometers underground, featuring numerous chambers, passages, and abysses developed in Devonian limestone formations beneath Špraněk Hill.
A team led by game warden Vilém Švec discovered most of the cave system in 1938, although the first written documentation dates back to 1873.
The Cave Administration of the Czech Republic manages these caves as part of their national geological heritage, offering educational programs about underground ecosystems.
Visitors need to walk 900 meters uphill from the parking area to reach the cave entrance, where guided tours covering 450 or 800 meters are available.
The cave system contains helictites, unusual formations that grow in different directions regardless of gravity, and a two-meter-long limestone structure called the Curtain.
