The Natural monument Kněhyňská cave
The cave is situated in the southeast slope of the Kněhyně mountain in the Moravian - Silezian Beskydy mountains, abou 750 m below surface, in altitude 1045 – 1050 m. The entrance is placed in a ragged south hillslope descending by 30 – 35 ° about 50 m above the forest path.
A fissur cave, formed by tectonic forces, is the deepest of its kind in the West Carpathians (depth 57,5 m). The length of the passages within different levels is 280 m. The cave has three entries that are not joint by passages. It is also an important place where bats spend winter dormancy, a place where interesting species of spiders and other invertebrates can be found. To keep the unique microclimate and the bats safe, the entry to the cave is protected by bars. Another reason for that is that the spelean evolution has not finished yet and the rock mass is moving and the ceiling can cave in (e.g. the entry in the cave Cyrilka got blocked by rocks in 1998).
