The second section has a length of 700 meters featuring the series of lakes.
The third and largest section is 50 meters long.

It is a rare creation of Nature. Apart from its labyrinth of corridors, its mysterious galleries and its strange stalactite formations, the “Cave of the Lakes” has something exclusively unique that does not exist in other well known caves. Inside the cave there is a string of cascading lakes forming three different levels that establish its uniqueness in the world.

Its explored length is 1980 meters. The developed part of the cave is currently 500 meters long. The visitor enters through an artificial tunnel and leads directly to the second floor. This section is awe and admiration.

The passage through the lakes becomes by small man-made bridges.
