At the very beginning of the cave is a glacier. It descends vertically to its very bottom. The depth of the cave is 30 meters, and the ice layer is at least 4 meters. Inside the cave, grottoes and wells depart in different directions. They house stalactites of unusual beauty on the walls. At its very bottom there are large limestone deposits. Inside the Cross cave, a comfortable temperature of about +3 degrees remains.
