We begin our adventure with the Postojna Caves, which await us to reveal the secrets of Slovenia’s underground. Get ready for an exciting journey aboard the electric train that will guide us through the first railway ever built inside a limestone cave, inaugurated in 1872. Along this route, we will discover an underground kingdom of caverns, corridors, and monumental halls, adorned with stalactites and stalagmites that create a surreal landscape, shaped drop by drop over millions of years. Among the wonders not to be missed, the shining stalagmite known as the Brilliant, the symbol of the Postojna Caves, will leave us breathless with its whiteness and majesty.
A short distance from the Postojna Caves, we will find the Predjama Castle, an architectural gem majestically perched on a 123-meter-high rock face, which has dominated the landscape for over 800 years. This fortress will transport us back in time, telling the heroic deeds of the knight Erasmus and his daring raids, hidden within the secret galleries that wind behind its walls. Predjama Castle represents a perfect harmony between human ingenuity and the sculptural art of nature, ranking among the most fascinating and unique castles in the world.
We conclude our journey, full of discoveries and enchantment, taking with us unforgettable memories of an adventure through natural and historical wonders that only HopTour can offer.
