Vöröstó middle tour

The tour takes guests along the longest lit section of the Baradla Cave. The tour departs at the Red Lake/Vörös-tó entrance and terminates next to the Jósvafő Ticket Office, and takes approximately 100 minutes to traverse.

The majority of the route follows the stream bed of the Styx Creek, where, following heavy rainfall or snow melt, the really water rumbles along. The route winds through immensely colourful stalactite columns, flags and stalagmites until eventually one comes to Hungary’s tallest 19 m stalagmite called the “Observatory.” Other highlights include the Dragon’s Head and the cave’s largest chamber, The Hall of Giants where you will get a taste of the room’s fantastic acoustics.

Advance ticket purchase and online booking is not possible for individual guests.

From 4th November 2024, tickets for the Vörös-tó tour can be exchanged at the Jósvafő cave ticket office!

After buying the tickets, the national park bus takes all visitors to the Vörös-tó entrance together with the tour guide. The cave tour ends in Jósvafő at the exit next to the cave ticket office.

You can park 50 meters from the ticket office in the lower parking lot. There is a free toilet near the cash desk.

Access to the Jósvafő cave ticket office is currently possible from the lower parking lot - due to the closure of the stairway, temporarily - via the route indicated on the map (parking lot -- Y-junction -- cave entrance):
