Exploring karstic treasures: Huda luknja cave

I am always impressed by the underground world. The Cavetours project that connects northern Slovenian caves of Solčavsko with Austrian cave world hides a lot of underground sights worth visiting. But there is more. Šalek Valley could proud itself with some unique natural monuments.

On the road from Velenje to Slovenj Gradec the gorge is squeezed between two hills. The karstic area consists of more than ten caves, the most popular is Huda luknja cave, first Slovenian tourist cave. Above Huda luknja there are Špehovka and Pilanica caves. I was inspired by variety of botanical species like double blossom viola, pretty primula and primula auricular.
