Kapsia Cave is a breathtaking natural wonder located in the Peloponnese region of Greece. As someone who has had the privilege of exploring the cave, I can confidently say that it is one of the most impressive and awe-inspiring geological formations I have ever seen.

The cave is easily accessible by car and the entrance fee is very reasonable. Once inside, visitors are treated to a spectacular display of stalactites and stalagmites that have been formed over thousands of years. The lighting inside the cave is well-designed and adds to the overall ambiance, highlighting the natural beauty of the cave.

What I particularly appreciated about Kapsia Cave was the way in which it has been developed for tourism without compromising its natural beauty. The walkways and stairs have been carefully designed to blend in with the cave, and the information provided throughout the cave is informative without being intrusive. Visitors can learn about the geological processes that formed the cave as well as the history of its discovery and exploration.

One of the highlights of the visit is the large chamber towards the end of the cave, where visitors can admire the sheer size of the cave and the impressive formations that adorn its walls. The acoustics in the chamber are also noteworthy, and visitors can hear their voices echoing back at them.

Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Kapsia Cave for anyone traveling to the Peloponnese region of Greece. It is a truly remarkable natural wonder that will leave you in awe of the beauty and...

This was a last minute decision to visit and I can’t imagine not going!

This is a breathtaking cave with beautiful written all over it. Our guide, Panagoula was so very nice and sweet it made this so much more enjoyable and special. We were lucky to be in a private tour just the two of us with Panagoula and she explained everything to us in so much detail. The tour lasted about 50 minutes and by the time it was over, I wanted to go through it again!

I can’t believe we have such beautiful sights outside the bigger cities and I couldn’t suggest this place enough! It is indeed in top 10 caves in Greece, so you understand the beauty. Pictures do not do its justice I promise you!

The ticket is 6€ per person and the tours are every one hour (9:30,10:30,11:30 etc).

A MUST VISIT!

Thank you Panagoula for the beautiful tour and for...

The Kapsia cave is well worth the hour drive from Nafplio. We arrived on the tail end of a primary school tour and an Athens pensioner tour, so our first impression of the cafe and ticket shop was of utter chaos. It took some time for the English-speaking staff to make their way to the ticket counter and give us information about the tours (they run every hour on the half hour, with the last tour at 15:30). We chose to wait for the crowd to depart (which meant taking a tour an hour after we had planned) and were glad we did. We ended up having a private tour with Pat, who was knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed her job. The cave itself is unlike any other cave I have visited (which admittedly is a short list). There are some truly spectacular formations, as well as some fascinating historical and...

Εύκολη πρόσβαση,κοντά στην Αγία Φωτεινή (10 λεπτά),εξαιρετικοί ξεναγοί,όμορφο καφέ ώστε να ξεκουραστεί ο επισκέπτης και με ωραία διάθεση οι υπεύθυνοι.Πολυ ευγενικοι και πρόθυμοι να επικοινωνήσουν και να καθοδηγήσουν.Από τα πιο όμορφα και καλοδιατηρημένα σπήλαια στην Ελλάδα. Δεν είναι γνωστό καθόλου και θα ήταν πολύ σημαντικό ο δήμος ή οι υπεύθυνοι πολιτισμού να προβάλουν το μέρος ώστε να το επισκεφτεί ο κόσμος. Έτσι θα μπορούν να απολαύσουν μέσω ξενάγησης από αξιόλογους ανθρώπους την διαδρομή στο σπήλαιο και την ιστορία που κρύβεται μέσα σε αυτό. Από τα δέκα καλύτερα στην Ελλάδα το Σπήλαιο Κάψια βρίσκεται 15 χιλιόμετρα μακριά από την Τρίπολη και 1,5 χιλιόμετρο από το χωριό Κάψια. Οι ειδικοί το έχουν κατατάξει στον κατάλογο των 10 πιο αξιόλογων σπηλαίων της ελληνικής επικράτειας. Βρίσκεται στην περιφέρεια της κλειστής γεωλογικής λεκάνης του Μαντινειακού οροπεδίου και συνδέεται με το περίπλοκο σύστημα από φυσικές καταβόθρες που χαρακτηρίζουν τον υδροφόρο ορίζοντα. Ανάμεσα στα ευρήματα του σπηλαίου συγκαταλέγονται ανθρώπινα οστά και πήλινα καθημερινά σκεύη.Το σπήλαιο ερευνήθηκε πρώτη φορά από το Γάλλο αρχαιολόγο Γουσταύο Φουζέρ το 1887 στο πλαίσιο των ανασκαφών του στη Μαντίνεια Αρκαδίας. Το 1911 γίνεται η επίσημη ανακοίνωση για τον σπηλαιολογικό αυτό θησαυρό και αποτελεί γεγονός που σηματοδοτεί το παγκόσμιο ενδιαφέρον για την ελληνική κρυφή γη. Το 1974 ανακαλύπτεται και νέο τμήμα του σπηλαίου, προκαλώντας ρίγη συγκίνησης στους φυσιοδίφες και τους ρέκτες. Το σπήλαιο αποδεικνύεται βιβλίο καταγραφής γεωλογικών συμβάντων. Πάνω του έχει αφήσει πιστοποιημένα ίχνη μια μεγάλη πλημμύρα. Και ταυτόχρονα έρχονται στο φως μέσα από τα βάθη της γης λυχνάρια, εργαλεία, δαλυχόποδα (γρύλος των σπηλαίων), θραύσματα οστών που διηγούνται την ιστορία της επιβίωσης. Ένας από τους χώρους του σπηλαίου της Κάψιας έχει το όνομα «Αίθουσα των Θαυμάσιων». Χρώματα εκρηκτικά, κόκκινα και κίτρινα και γαλάζια δημιουργούν ένα έργο τέχνης απαράμιλλης ομορφιάς φτιαγμένο από την ίδια τη φύση.
