Overview

Modrič Cave, situated near Jasenice-Maslenica, approximately 35 km northeast of Zadar, offers a unique caving experience. Discovered in 1985 by speleologist Silvijo Legović, the cave stretches over 829 meters and stands out for its untouched natural beauty. What sets Modrič Cave apart is its commitment to preserving its original form. There are no concrete walkways, artificial lighting, or man-made barriers, allowing visitors to witness nature's artistry firsthand. The cave's interior features a constant temperature of 17°C. As you explore, you'll encounter narrow passages and spacious chambers filled with stalactites, stalagmites, and other unique formations that spark the imagination.Modrič Cave is also home to a variety of life, including blind crabs and spiders adapted to the darkness, as well as snails and occasional bats. Speleologists have uncovered fossil remains of a Bronze Age human, dating back over 4,000 years, along with ceramic artifacts and cave bear bones from the last Ice Age (15,000 to 20,000 years ago). Guided tours, lasting around two hours, provide visitors with helmets, coveralls, and lights to navigate the cave's natural obstacles.
