The Atlantis Cave is a unique karst cave located in Ukraine, Kamianets-Podilsky District, Khmelnytskyi Region, near the village of Zavalya. This cave is a geological natural monument of national importance. The total length of the cave is 7,493 meters, and its area is 3,120 square meters. The cave was opened in 1969 and today is under the jurisdiction of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Council for Tourism and Excursions, offering visitors unforgettable excursions to the world of underground wonders.
Atlantis Cave is an underground karst wonder
Atlantis is a unique three-level cave in Podilla, which impresses with its structure. The first floor of the cave has large galleries, spacious enough to walk at full height. The second floor, known as the transition zone or labyrinth system, consists of narrower cavities. The third floor has two small passages about five meters high.
The temperature inside the cave is stable throughout the year and is about 11 degrees above zero, which makes it ideal for visits at any time. It is important to note that the cave is a zone of increased danger, so excursions here are conducted exclusively accompanied by an experienced speleologist. This ensures safety and allows visitors to fully enjoy the beauty of the underground world filled with crystals.
In the Atlantis cave, tourists are offered a choice of three routes, each of which has a different level of difficulty:
- Introductory route – is an ideal option for school-aged children. This route allows younger visitors to get to know the cave, its unique structure and beauty, without requiring much physical effort.
- Detailed route for adults – this route is designed for adults and offers a deeper immersion into the cave world. It includes visits to the more complex and picturesque places of Atlantis.
- The maximum route is the most demanding and intended for tourists with good physical and technical training. This route requires participants to have knowledge and skills in the field of speleology, as well as endurance and readiness for physical challenges.
Thus, every tourist will be able to choose a route in Atlantis depending on their preferences and level of training.
Unfortunately, the Atlantis cave suffered from neglect during a certain period of time, which led to the destruction of some of its parts. In addition, vandals contaminated, broke and even took away the crystals as souvenirs, leaving traces of their activities.
In order to protect and preserve the cave, entrance to Atlantis is now restricted and each visit to the dungeon is exclusively accompanied by a qualified guide. This prevents further vandalism and ensures the protection of the cave’s unique natural heritage. Visitors can only take back memories, photos and maybe some clay on their clothes as a memento of their adventure in Atlantis.
