Jaskinia Mylna — Attraction in gmina Kościelisko

Great experience, not like the usual guided cave tours. You go on your own, and go prepared - you need a good light source as you go through 300m of twisting narrow and low pasages (several about 1m high) in complete darkness. ALWAYS look for the trail signs as you can get lost - it is well signposted but keep checking. You start by going about 15 minutes up the red trail from the main tourist path, although it's unidirectional there are sometimes people coming down who gave up. You enter through a crawlway, most likely on your hands and knees, if you have a backpack you'll probably have to take it off and drag it alongside you. You WILL get dirty and wet, several sections are muddy and partially flooded and you have to crawl through them, waterproof shoes recommended as you may step into ankle deep water. Using a phone for light is possible but difficult and you may drop it into the water (or a crevice and never find it) or get it muddy or scrathed, so better use a headlamp or waterproof torch. It takes about 30 minutes to get though the cave itself, and about 1 hour total including the trail up and down. Children (not too young) can do it without major issues although they will most likely get muddy and wet, and be sure they don't change their mind as once you go in you can't turn back if other people are behind you. In generel interesting...

I'm going to rate this 5 star not because I enjoyed it, but because it is an interesting experience. As for me, I am a bigger dude, like 5'10, 250lb. with mild claustrophobia. I went through the first two caves in the park, no problem. This one was a completely different animal. Very tight, low passages, and the signage is not great. I got about 10 minutes in and had to turn back as fear gripped my mind and panic started to set in. I prayed to God for a calm mind and the ability to find my way back out and He gave that to me. I had a headlamp and spare batteries. I was very glad to see the light again. It's not great to be by yourself where you could get lost in a cave. I almost started to hyperventilate. Also, bear in mind that from what I saw, this park is visited mostly by Polish nationals. I don't speak Polish and didn't have cell service. This added to the tension. With all of that said, AT YOUR OWN RISK, go in and try the cave. I would never do it again, but my brother met a friend in there and they made it out. The guy was Polish, but he spoke English and later told my brother that the translation of the cave into English is something like the "cave of getting lost." Again, I give it 5 stars because it is a unique experience, but don't think it's some simple deal, no problem. There is no supervision. You're...

Great cave. Terrible experience.

If you’re going here and Jaskinia Raptawicka, make sure you visit Raptawicka first.

Jaskinia Mylna is a through cave, you enter on one side, but leave on another, and the only way is downstairs to the foothill. Bring a headlight (not phone), if you’re going alone - two. This cave can be deadly if you lose your source of light.

Cave is about 200 meters long of which 90% you’re going to go on all fours (if you bring knee protection) or crouching. The cave is wet - puddles you can’t escape, so yes, your feet will get soaked. Your clothes will be dirty. I had gloves which helped as I was going on all fours. If you bring a backpack, it’s likely to be soaked accidentally as well.

The cave is well marked with red arrows.

Do not recommend for tall people (doable but very uncomfortable). Do not go with claustrophobia.

End of cave is a chain on slippery rock. If you fall I don’t know what one would do, I did not see the bottom of this (right side...
