Top Speleology Spots in Austria

Don't skip the hike to the entrance! It's beautiful and really sets the mood. Just wear good shoes, because it can get slippery.

I recommend grabbing some snacks at the café before the tour. Food is pretty pricey up there, and you’re gonna want some energy for the walk back.

Check the weather! It can get freezing in the cave compared to outside, so layering up is a smart move. I had to borrow a jacket from my friend!

Be ready for a bit of a wait if you’re going in peak season. We went at 10 AM and it was packed! Maybe coming around 4 PM would give you shorter lines.

Definitely wear sturdy shoes! The paths can be slippery and rocky, and I learned that the hard way. A good grip will make exploring the cave so much easier and safer.

If you're planning to take photos, go for the 3 PM tour. The lighting is perfect then, and you'll get some amazing shots without too many other people in the way.
