Rather annoying I was using a 23 m rope to rig a 3 m... read more

Only something with a meaning can stand the test of time” - Ian Brown Planinska Jama has an impressive 100 meter high entrance arch through which flows the River Unica. Remnants of an old water mill add further character to this unique venue. Five hundred meters in, the cave splits into two paths at the confluence between the rivers Pivka and Rak that form the Unica. Our... read more
