A mysterious karst world of stunning natural wonders
Where water disappears underground and dissolves rock, remarkable natural formations have taken shape over millions of years.
It was here, on the Karst plateau, that the first explorations of underground caves and the geological landscape now known worldwide as karst began just over two hundred years ago.
These astonishing discoveries, significant to all humanity, are now the Karst’s most recognisable sights. A disappearing river, vast underground canyons, shafts and caves, stalactites and stalagmites, sinkholes and other karst features form a magical world that continues to intrigue researchers and delight visitors.
