Devetàshka cave (the name in Bulgarian:
Devetashka peshtera) is huge
karst cave in Bulgaria, known for its long term occupancy for human and other
type biological populations during extensive historical periods. It is also
home to nearly 30,000 bats.
Devetashka
cave is located 15 km
northeast of Lovech
and approximately 2 km
from the
village of Devetaki. To reach the cave one can walk along a narrow path by the
river, starting from the village of Devetaki, or access it directly from Road
301 via a 400 m-long dirt road and concrete bridge, constructed in 2011
for the filming of
The Expendables 2. Large
numbers of bats were displaced from the cave. By late 2012, the majority of the
bats had returned to the cave.
