A small cave in the forests between Baczyn and the Katowice - Cracow freeway.
Nice rocks and surroundings, but nothing interesting in the cave itself - not worth a separate trip.

There's a very nice reserve in the Sanka Valley - the Cold Hold Reserve.
Lots of nice rock formations that reminded me in places of Bledne Skaly (Misleading Rocks) in Gory Stolowe (Table Mountains).
Many paths among, under, and through rocks; almost caves there...

The only "real" cave on this trip...
It starts with a small chamber, next a tube-like passage.
This passage changes direction several times, and the farther you go, the tighter it gets.
And it also gets wetter and muddier, including a crawl in a small pool.
And... that's about it. :-)

We went to Mnikowska Valley to visit the Cave above Holy Marry.
However, this was Sunday, so we decided that climbing over and above the altar
would be a bit politically incorrect. Especially during a mass...
So, we just had a nice trip through the valley and several small caves on the way.
A really nice valley, perfect for a weekend walk and a picnic.
The photos show the valley from its upper part to its exit.
