Ten caves in the Apuseni Mountains will be prepared for caving under a unique programme in Romania conducted by the Bihor Centre for Protected Areas and Sustainable Development (CAPDD). The cave network will get financial assistance from Switzerland.
“They will be caves with adventure trails to be visited on demand by anyone in a good physical shape. We want to put caving on the map, in addition to tours of caves. Anyone can visit the caves provided that he or she is in the necessary physical shape allowing for traversing a cave using speleological gear, including harnesses, ropes and similar. The caves are ranked by difficulty, with some of them very easy to traverse using the walls for support or on all fours, while others are more difficult, with water trails and water falls,” project coordinator Andrei Acs told AGERPRES.
