It is an interesting cave, definitely worth the visit. Although it is only a with some stalactite, and not a real stalactite cave. I have been more beautiful stalactite before. What really interesting is the length of the cave. It is very very long. Our was very kind, and although the was only in German language, he summarized it for us at the end. Be prepared: it is 10 celsius degrees inside. You can only visit the with guidance so check the time slots for the tours before going there. Interesting cave, lots of things to see and a nice guide. For 10 euros you can book the small guided which lasts about an hour. You go 1 - 2 kilometers into the which is a great adventure. At 10 degrees celsius and an average of 98% humidity, you can see the stalactites and stalagmites and countless bats. The staff is quite friendly and always ready to answer questions. Clear recommendation for this adventure. We have had a good time there. The stuff was very friendly and interesting to listen to. It was a pleasure. The itself is extraordinary, but unfortunately the guide, who introduced herself as Stefi, did a very poor job. Even though several of us didn’t speak German, she spoke in English only very rarely, and right at the beginning she said that translating would take too long. She also gave some completely wrong information. For example, she claimed that the bear was a herbivore, even though the dentition of the displayed skeleton clearly shows otherwise. She said that the draft felt in part of the passage was a good sign that the would not flood, and she stated that, for some strange reason, plants grow inside the and that scientists from all over the world come to study it. In reality, the plants only grow in the lit areas, which simply gives them enough light — something easy to check online. At the exit she gave gifts to some children while ignoring the others, which understandably left the children asking why. This is the biggest in Austria (36 km). The galleries are quite tall and spectacular. The presence of water inside creates beautiful formations. The is flooded during heavy rains and it is closed for public. The price is 7.5 EUR for adults but it's totally worthed. Unbelievable beautiful dripstone cave. The biggest one in Austria with underwater rivers. The 1 hour trip is perfect for families, there is enough light and a pathway incl railings. We even saw bats - the highlight for the kids. The museums are small but very educational. Really recommended! One day, i hopefully dare to take the 6-8 hours adventure trip! I had a great experience at the Lurgrotte. There are 2 museums to see aswell, but all the information is in German. The 1h was also in German, but the told me that if I have any questions that he'd be happy to explain in English. The staff was really friendly and helpful ! (If you don't understand German, your experience might not be as nice though.) Nice day trip idea :) It is one of the caves located in Austria. You need to walk a while in midst of rocks and terrains. This tourist spot is well maintained with sufficient parking space. It also has a museum which showcases fossils and ancient tools and stuffs used my mankind. An interesting system of about 1,5 km and something different when it is hot outside. Bear in mind that you will need a jacket in order to stay inside the for 1+ hour that the lasts. They provide you with clothes in the reception if you ask for it. The was very explanatory although mostly in the german language. A really nice experience. Visited for the 3rd time, it's a really cool experience. The weather in the is pleasant, cool, and humid. The place is very beautiful, and the path inside is well-developed. The was also interesting, the was kind.
