Tour of Punkva Cave and Macocha
The biggest attractions of the Moravian Karst
There is probably no bigger attraction in the Moravian Karst than a trip to the Punkva Cave and the huge abyss Macocha. A walk through the caves, a tour of the abyss and finally a cruise on the river Punkva in the depths of the cave is a really great experience. Don't forget that there is a lot of interest in this trip and if you want to be sure that you will get there, buy tickets well in advance continue reading
A tour of the Catherine's Cave
The largest accessible dome in the Czech Republic
Kateřinská Cave lives in the shadow of Macocha and its Punkva Cave. It was opened to the public in 1910. The circuit of this cave is shorter. It is decorated with stalactites and there is the Main Dome – the largest accessible underground dome in the Czech Republic (length 97 m, width 44 m, height 20 m). Thanks to its acoustics, concerts are held here. In 2019, the oldest prehistoric drawings in the Czech Republic were discovered in the cave, created by charcoal on the walls in the Late Stone Age, around 4200 BC continue reading

A walk through the empty gutter
Walk through the karst canyon
There are about 1000 caves in the Moravian Karst. Tourists are especially attracted by the abyss Macocha and the Punkva Cave. Pustý žleb is a canyon several kilometers long, which leads from the town of Sloup in the north and south towards Skalní mlýn. It is full of tourists in season, but in winter you will hardly meet anyone here. We chose the route from Nové Dvůr to Těchov to go through a less common variant of the tour. continue reading
Tour of Balcarka Cave
Stalactite decoration
It is located on the island of Macocha. It has been known since time immemorial. It has been explored in its entirety since 1923. Today, the cave enjoys one of the most beautiful stalactite decorations in the Czech Republic. From my experience years ago, the cave is poorly lit and the impression of the tour was one of the worst I've ever walked through the area. continue reading
