Girl`s and Lad`s Caves (Leany- es Legeny-barlang)
Online szállásfoglalás
A popular local place for excursions, the extensive Girl's and Lad's Caves created by thermal waters between the Csévi Cliffs once served as a dwelling for prehistoric man.
Opening just 50 metres from one another, these two related caves formed on the western slopes of the Pilis Hills have identical characteristics. The northern smaller opening is known as the Girl's Cave, the wider one to the south as Lad's Cave.
The Lad's Cave has been explored to some 350 metres and 60 metres deep. The valuable form of this complicated labyrinth is typified by large chambers and narrow passages. Similar treasures are concealed in the Girl's Cave too which is around 200 metres in length and has a difference in level between the entrance and the deepest point of 40 metres. It is probable that the two caves were at one stage interconnected and that the linking passage was subsequently blocked.
