Abstract

The cave Strašna peć (Frightful furnace) is an interesting tourist, ecological and historical destination, situated near Savar on Dugi otok, next to the Nature park Telašcica and the National park Kornati. The first speleological research took place in 1900, when the cave was opened for visitors and tourists. Due to its fascinating beauty, even the Austro-Hungarian emperor Franz Joseph visited it in 1904. Strašna peć has a 10m wide and 7m tall monumental entrance, where among joined stalactites and stalagmites, nature created the space like the gothic cathedral arches. The thrilling picturesque first hall will suprise you, and the whole cave has a romantic touch.
