Pestera fantastica (Fantastic Cave) Magura, Sighistel, Bihor, Romania

Măgura Cave is to be found in the right part of Sighiştel valley. The path leading to it starts from the narrow entrance. The length of the stalactite cave is 1500m, a true huge nicely ornamented labyrinth. Its measures are amazing. Its most famous creature is the palm-tree, at the west part of the cave, a huge pillar with a baldachin umbrella at the top. In the west part of it we can find a wet part. In case of rainy weather humidity increases and the limestones are flooded. From the Bears` passage we can get to the Scăldătoarea Urşilor through a small and rising channel. There is a lake in the small hall, on the walls we can still see the marks of claw of the bear that lived here.
