Very well organized. Impressive cave, it's definitely worth visiting. You get a helmet to protect your head of the low ceiling areas. The visit is unguided, but easy to navigate. At the route there is a freshwater spring - supposedly the purest spring water in Romania. There is also a waterfall on a side route. Unfortunately people are throwing money in the water pools, polluting with plastic and metal. At the base, close to the parking lot, you can find traditional food stalls. The road to the location is not the best, but they are working on it.

I had actually headed to Bucegi National Park to see the Sphinx but I got there later in the day and ran into a family that suggested the cave. That was a great suggestion! It is massive and beautiful! Getting there was somewhat of an interesting endeavor. You can park at the end of the road that leads there (before the small bridge). Then you start walking on the gravel road but it ends abruptly and you might not be quite sure where to go. You have to be on the left side of the stream. There and fallen trees and one section had a couple of boards to cross. You will make it back to a road again and it will lead directly up to the cave. Entrance is only 10 Lei (about $2.50). I know it seems silly at first but the helmet is a great idea because I bumped my head more than once in low areas. They provide you bonnets (to be sanitary) and hard hats at the mouth of the cave. Once you enter there are paths and stairways that lead to the upper and lower parts of the cave. I probably explored for about an hour. There is a small waterfall in the lower part where the water is believed to have healing properties. All in all really beautiful. You can end your experience taking a peak at chapel at the entrance which is part of the monastery I believe.

This is a fascinating combination of nature and human labor. It looks like faith in life, because there are tons of rocks above this church. This cave, church and the walk up to this place are inspiring.

Beautiful cave with stream inside of it. The water is amazing! So clean and pure. The path is well lit and the stairs are pretty steep in some places but it is worth it, so go inside take a helmet if you afraid to bang your head in some low places and enjoy the cool.

Excellent place to visit in Romania! It was very cool to explore these chilly caves and the beautiful church at its base :)

the very first cave that i've visited that makes you really explore the cave, touch the walls and feel the atmosphere. the church was beautiful, never seen something like this before.

We drove by car from Sinai on the Transbucegi road. Cave is located in Moroeni at an altitude of 1560 meters. The total length of the cave is 1208 meters, of which 480 meters are accessible and adapted for visitors. In this cave the Wallachian ruler Mihnea the Evil (Mihnea cel Rău) hid. Very beautiful monastery nearby the cave. Find a helmet at the beginning and wear it, otherwise you will get some head bumps. In rainy weather wear a proper coat. Vocal guide is available only in Romanian language. Amazing experience walking in ancient caves. Very safe and modern. There are many tips on the route, there are signs, signs with directions to the exit. We were an hour before the closing of the cave and there were very few people. I guess this cave definitely worth a visit. 💶 Prices: Adults - 10 lei (2€) Children - 5 lei (1€) Yeah, there are a lot of stairs up and down, so be ready 😁

This cave has been completely renovated and it has stairs along the entire cave. First of all, you will arrive in front of a monastery gate entrance, you can buy souvenirs and you will also have to purchase a ticket before being able to get in the cave. The ticket costs 10 ron. You will have to wear one of those hair nets and then wear a helmet that ccan be found on a sort of a table. The helmet is not necessary but I do highly recommend it, you might hit your head otherwise. Some parts of the cave have a low level and you need to bend to cross them. The cave total length opened to visit is about 400m. Inside the cave you can see a waterfall, a big dome and a praying shrine.

It's a shame to charge so many people a lot of money and not have a functional toilet, even for Romania. I'm sorry to give only a 1-star review, but this is unacceptable for such an important place to have no toilet. 😑

It is located on the right side of Ialomiţa Gorge, in the town of Moroeni, Dâmbovița county, on Bătrâna Mountain, at about 10 km from the springs of the Ialomița river, at an altitude of 1,530 m. at an absolute altitude of 1,660 m .

If you visit the area, this is the place you don't want to miss.

The best cave I visited, really huge, ceiling is short in some places, and the path is narrow. Better to take something to cover head as the water drops heavily in some places. You can light a candle in the church at the entrance.

Not only this cave is beautiful by itself, but it’s very well arranged for tourists to have an immersive experience. The unique combination of nature, history and religion was for me transformational. Throughout the journey and mostly in St Mary’s room, with water flowing everywhere from the walls you feel special. No place for disbeliefs and doubts here. You just live the full spiritual experience. The cave hosts events such as The Jazz Cave Festival early in July. Just imagine how beautiful this can be.

Moastery is a great starter but main course comes inside the cave

A wonderful and very peaceful place. Both the monastry and cave are a must see.

Very nice cave, very well designed for tourists. You can get a free helmet at the entrance so you don't bump your head against the walls, which could be quite low in some places. It's quite accessible overall, moderately trafficked by tourists. Could be a great option if you're near Brașov, the road to the cave is really nice with scenic views!

very unusual place with church build in the cave. for 10 lei you may get a tour into a cave or roughly 30 min. it is worthwhile to do it.

Cave has a nice story and is well maintained. If you go by car, the drive is also very scenic and fun.

Interesting cave made well accessible with proper steps, handrails and lighting. It will help to have the story told through speakers in other languages as well.

It was a awesome experience, you can go inside the cave up to 480m from 1228m, really easy. All the way secured with metal pedestal. They even provide you with protective helmets before you go inside for the areas where it is quite narrow. Important will be to have a rainy jacket with you, also on top of that the temperature inside is quite low around 8-10 degrees Celsius.

Jaw-dropping cave with passage ways where you have to duck and watch your head. Giant room at one point. The fresh water spring from within is breathtaking. Pictures cannot portray the real dimension of both tiny and huge spaces from within. Make sure to wear the free helmets available at the entrance!

The cave is quite large and you have a lot to see. Use the helmets provided at the entrance as some portions of the ceiling are quite low. Even if it's summer, get a jacket or a hoodie as inside it's quite cold. Other than that, it's a nice cave to explore with an old church being at its entrance.

Awesome Cave and very well preserved.A true nature's gem and an unforgettable experience :)

The inside of the cave is very well structured with stairs and at the entrance they offer a helmet for more narrow and lower parts.

A very interesting place for children and adults. Be sure to wear helmets. Beautiful caves, warm in winter.

So nice

Very nice cave, in a very hidden place, we got there by chance when a guy offered to take us on a tour. Would recommend the experience to everyone. Wear a helmet, bashed my head at least 4 times, the helmet protected my head.

We did not expect the cave to be so large. It is very beautiful inside but you need to be careful as some passages are very narrow and some stairs are slippery. We reached the waterfall inside the cave but never found the exit. I believe it was somewhere up the stairs but it was too steep for our daughter to climb and she was scared too, so we just turned back and exited from the place we entered.

The cave is really cool , we had a nice walk to get to the entrance of the cave, and the inside was really interesting and beautiful, please notice that the cave is long and with many stairs and a bit cold 5 to 6c degrees .

This was absolutely beautiful. But if you're not great with stairs, don't enter the caves. We were exhausted and we are young and fit people hahaha. The walk to the cave was beautiful as well.

Spectacular visit. Beware if you have lower back problems, some rooms have a very low ceiling.

What a stunning place! Recommend 100%!! Wear the optional hard hats (I didn’t, now have a sore head)!

Amazing cave,entrance fee just 10 lei (2€). No waiting queue... its a must seen

Beautiful experience to be done. Symbolic entrance fee (10 lei / € 2). Inside temperature around 4/5 degrees.

Amazing experience walking in ancient caves. Very safe and modern, sign in Romanian and English. Chapel is also beautiful.

Very beautiful cave to visit, you have to park approx 900m before the cave and do the rest on foot, definitely worth the little walk. When i was here now the bridge was washed off by a huge flood so be careful crossing the improvised crossing. The cave itself is pretty deep, about 15-20 min walk to the deepest end. i recommend you take one of the available helmets at the entrance many passages are very low. All in all very modern setup now for visiting compared to the wooden planks we were walking on 10 year ago.

staired one-way path leads up and down steep cat walks with a small monastery fronting the cave (10-lei/ron $2€), although the real gem of this area is the series of streams in front that lead to picnic grounds with period dressed romanian purveyors of traditional food in a panorama mountains surrounding

Great experience. The cave is recently modernized. I recommend.

there is free parking a few hundred meters down hill where you will find options to eat traditional food, then a nice walk by the river will get you there in a short time, don't forget to bring a blouse because there are 5-6 Celsius degrees inside, enjoy the experience!
