Excursion to the Optimistic cave - world's longest gipsum cave

The third longest cave in the world became available for every traveler. This underground labyrinth is not only the longest one but also the most beautiful in Ukraine. You will be enchanted with huge crystals, vast ceilings, chimerical helictites, hedgehogs and roses formed by crystal gypsum. Trip finishes with a double tour to Mlynky cave along a novel route.
