One of the best-explored limestone cave systems in Europe, Moravian Karst consists of several hundred caves in a densely wooded area with canyons, underground rivulets and deep cliffs.

We drove from Bruno and it took about 40 minutes. The cave tour lasts about an hour. Starts with a walk thru some of the best limestone flows we have seen and ends with an almost km long boat ride to the exit tunnel. This area has several caves within 30 minutes drive. We were able to do two since we got a late start. If in Bruno this is a great day out into the surrounding area. We were there in September and tours started at 900 and ended at 1600 for all caves. Keep this in mind if trying to go to multiple caves. Also the schedule really drops off in October and more again in November. The tours all started at the top of the hour.

The whole area is well worth a visit with at least 5 separate cave systems to explore as well as the beautiful scenery. This particular cave network is amazing with some fantastic structures and the mirror pool was beautiful. The whole tour is about an hour and there are a lot of steps to climb, so not really for people with mobility issues, it seems strange to be climbing upwards in a cave, but it's worth the climb. The underground boat trip was really interesting and you eventually arrive almost where you started, so not far to get back. Tip for the tour is to take the tourist train from the entrance to the park, as it's a good mile or so climb to get to the actual cave. Definitely worth a visit
