Cave Na Špičák

The cave on Špičák penetrates the peak of Velký Špičák / 516 m above sea level /, which is the top of the karst cone between the villages of Písečná and Supíkovice in the Supíkovice Upland, 10 km north of the town of Jeseník.

The labyrinth of passages and fissures was created by the waters of surface flows in the crystalline limestones – marbles, but their unusual shapes were imprinted by underground lakes of meltwater from the continental glacier, which, especially in the penultimate ice age, extended from the north to our territory. The passages have a typical heart-shaped profile. On the walls and ceilings of the cave you will find many historical inscriptions and passages.

  • The most famous place of the labyrinth is the intersection of the corridors called Calvary.
  • The first written record of the cave dates back to 1430. It is one of the oldest documented caves in central
    Europe. The cave was officially opened in 1885.
  • The total length of all known corridors is 410 m. The entrance is 439 m above sea level and the exit is 437 m above sea level.
  • The visitor circuit is wheelchair accessible and its length is 220 m, the tour takes 30 minutes.
