Aggtelek

Few communities in northern Hungary have a history as closely tied to the Baradla Cave system as Aggtelek. Set in the limestone country of the Aggtelek Karst, this small settlement lies beside a cave network that continues across the Slovak border as the Baradla–Domica system. The Caves of Aggtelek and Slovak Karst were inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1995, recognising their remarkable range of karst formations. Baradla’s extensive halls, including a chamber used for concerts, add a cultural dimension to the underground world. Above ground, wooded slopes, meadows and sinkholes shape the national-park surroundings. Move on to other webcams in northern Hungary to compare karst terrain and settlements around Aggtelek.
