Geocache Description:


Ulaz u Stopića pećinu se nalazi na 711m nadmorske visine, a sam ulaz je visok 18m. Pećina je duga 1690 m od čega je za posetioce uređeno nešto preko 300 m. Čine je 5 celina: Svetla dvorana, Tamna dvorana, Velika sala sa kadama, Kanal sa kadama i Rečni kanal. Zaštitni znak pećine predstavljaju udubljenja u naboranom kamenu kroz koje protiče i preliva se voda stvarajući slapove. Kroz pećinu prolazi  Trnavski potok, a kada je vodostaj visok formira se vodopad visok preko 9m simbolično nazvan „Izvor života“. Mada je pećina svakako puna slapova i malih vodopada. Unutra su lepo uređene staze i platforme za stajanje, a takođe je i lepo osvetljena.
Ulaz se plaća (trenutno 250 din odrasli, deca od 7 -15 god. 150 din), kao i parking (70 din)!

The entrance to the Stopica Cave is located 711m above see level and the entrance itself is 18m high. The cave is 1690m long and some 300m is opened to visitors. There are five units of Stopića cave: the bright hall, the dark hall, the great hall with tubs, the canal with baths and the river canal. The tourist part of the cave has got some attractive elements like: spacious entrance, “dugure”-the openings on the ceiling, sipar arch “Dog’s cemetery”, “The source of life” waterfall and a number of “siga” tubs. Because of their uniqueness, the "siga" tubs are the greatest attraction of the cave. They were made by deposited limestone. They are dents bordered by walls of stone or by winding vermilion “siga” wrinkles in which water collects and later flows over the tubs to the lower ones. In the River canal there is a whirlpool above which “siga” toboggan arises. Water is pouring down the cascades forming waterfalls when there is little water, while when there is a lot of water one unique waterfall, whose height is 9.44 m, is formed. You can’t hear the person you are talking to because of deafening noise of water. It looks as if the foamy water mass is falling down from the heaven, the air trembles of tiny drops, cold comes from the wet walls and the visitor feels horror-stuck in the pitch darkness of this cave. In spite of this the waterfall has been called “The spring of life.” Inside the cave, there are well made walkways and standing platforms and the cave is nicely lit.
The tickets are sold at the entrance (at the moment 250din regular, 150din children aged 7-15 years). There is also a parking fee (70din). You will have to pay the parking ticket.
