Odkrijte Postojnsko jamo in se zapeljite z edino turistično jamsko železnico v Evropi skozi veličastne dvorane in predore, ki jih je sklesala in ustvarila narava skozi stoletja. Obisku znamenite Postojnske jame, največjega podzemnega sistema jam na svetu, sledi še obisk v Predjamski grad.
Predjamski grad je deloma vzidan v jamo sredi 123 m visoke navpične stene. Prvotni grad je bil znan kot prebivališče legendarnega upornega viteza Erazma, današnji grad, v katerem je urejen muzej, pa ima renesančno podobo iz 16. stoletja.

Adventure Tips

The cave maintains a steady 10°C; bring jackets and comfortable shoes for walking on uneven surfaces.
Reserve your spot early

Bring a camera with low-light capability
Flash photography is prohibited inside the cave; a camera that handles low-light is ideal.
