Ledenika Cave

The name of the cave ‘Ledenika’ comes from the fascinating ice sculptures, which form in its antechamber during the cold part of the year.  The cave is situated 16 km from Vratsa, it is 300 meters long and it has 10 halls. The temperature in the external galleries ranges from -7 to -15 ºC. Inside Ledenika the temperature could reach 8 ºC. The cave has been filled with water many years ago, but now it has withdrawn and today all that is left is a small pond. According to the legends, the pond is magical and could make the wishes of the visitors come true. Ledenika is a cave with interesting rock formations – here you can see the Crocodile, the Giant, the Hawk and Santa Claus.
