Jama Pekel, the devils cave, is a nice cave with both a dry and a wet part, including a waterfall. The whole cave is easily to be made with light sports or hiking shoes, temperate for the easy freezing people is low enough to have a sweatshirt and maybe a jacket. Our tour lasted abot 1h30 led by a nice local guide, telling us besides the usual information some folklore stories about the cave. Definitely a good place for cave fans, albeit note that this not a "wild" cave, i.e. no tours on your own and no cavinc gear. Good for elder children as well.

Slovensko: Jama Pekel is amazing smaller cave near Zalog pri Šempetru, 4 km north of Šempeter v Savinjski dolini in Slovenia. The cave has an underground stream - Ponikvica in the lower part, runing out of the cave as creek Peklenščica. The upper part of the cave is dry with a lot of beautifull cave formations. The name: Hell Cave originates from similar rock entrance to the cave. Perfect cool and relax spot during hot sunny days. Ideal for short brake or relaxing lunch. 😈 ☉ 😥 👍

An alternative to Postojna if you want to see interesting rock formations without the queuing and prices. You have to do the guided tour that runs every 2h so time your arrival. They ran 2x tours of 30 when we visited. The narrative of the guided tour was a bit difficult to follow at times but that's not a complaint; the guide's English is far better than my Slovenian ever will be and I got the gist of what was said. Also, a great place to cool down; 37C outside, 10C inside!

This cave has some nice features like an underground waterfall and a second floor. Some very beautiful dripping stones as well. Price was a bit high: 14 euro’s per person. By far the most expensive cave we’ve been too in Slovenia. The guide was nice but talked a lot. Our tour group was international and Slovenian mixed so he told everything twice: once in Slovenian and once in English. Guess he meant well but it just made us stand around a lot.

This cave is worth a visit. It's about 3 million years old and is referred to as Hell's cave. It has a subterranean waterfall that can spark one's imagination, a small stream that runs through the lower part of the cave, and some wonderful geological sculptures made by Mother Nature. Take your time, add this subterranean marvel of nature to your to-visit-list, and join one of the guided tours.

Jama Pekel nije razvikana kao neke druge jame ali zato nije manje intersantna. Za mene je jedna od najljepših jama. Nema u njoj veličanstvenih dvorana, obilja stalaktita i stalagmita već je nekako intimnija. Obilazak jame je isključivo uz vodiča, u 10, 12, 14 i 16 sati i traje oko 45 min. Cijena od 10/12 € za pruženi doživljaj nikako nije previsoka. Obilazak je jednosmjeran, gotovo ravnim betoniranim putom na kojem je ponegdje potrebno sagnuti glavu i na kojem ponegdje ramenima ili bokovima dodirujemo zidove kanala širokog jedva metar, cijelo vrijeme uz ili iznad podzemne rječice, do njezinog 4-metarskog slapa, najvišeg u slovenskom podzemlju, nakon čega slijedi uspon strmim ali sigurnim metalnim stepenicama s ogradom kroz vertikalni kanal jame do ljudskom rukom probušenog izlaza. Putem ćemo vidjeti jedan vitki stalagmat i brojne špiljjske ukrase koji tvore zidove jame. U jami obitavaju šišmiši. Po izlasku možemo obići kraću ili dužu varijantu šumske poučne staze i na kraju se okrijepiti u Turističkom domu pri ulazu u jamu. Manje parkiralište je udaljeno 10 min lagane šetnje položenom širokom šumskom stazom.
