Cave system of Kita Gaćešina - Draženova Puhaljka, the longest cave in the Dinaric karst

The Croatian cavers have continued to explore the Crnopac Massif, the most northern, the highest and the most karstified part of the south-eastern Velebit mountain ridge known thanks to its underground karst phenomena. In more than 8 years of intensive research Cave system of Kita Gaćešina – Drazenova puhaljka reached the length of 23, 334 m, depth of 737 m and became the Croatian and Dinaric karst longest cave. Speleologists have done some geomorphological research, microclimatic and radon concentracion measurements, collecting and analysing some animal species. The whole area shows enormous speleological and tourism potential.
