Hell Cave, Show cave in Savinjska, Slovenia
The cave system extends over 1130 meters through limestone rock formations, featuring both dry and water-filled passages with mineral deposits in various colors.
First explored by researcher Reibenschuh in 1860, the cave contains Neanderthal remains and underwent renovations in the 1970s with electrical installations.
The entrance rock formation naturally resembles a devil figure, leading to the name Pekel, which translates to Hell in Slovenian.
The cave maintains a constant temperature of 10 degrees Celsius and includes 1159 meters of marked pathways across two distinct levels.
The cave features a 5-meter waterfall, making it the highest tourist-accessible underground waterfall in Slovenia.
