Generalka
Generalka is a cave in Zagorje with a horizontal passage length, located on the north slope of the Ivanščica massif, above the rock quarry Vudelja that opened in 1935 for road building purposes. It is a dry horizontal cave, and small, but complex. It is difficult to access, but a tourist path has been planned. Description The cave is located on the Generalski Stol plateau of Ivanščica. The cave formed in Anisian dolomite under a combination of tectonic, erosive, and corrosive conditions. It is small, so at 6 points its passages remain incompletely explored because of narrowness alone. But its passages form a complex network of 4 interconnected passages. The cave likely continues to the northwest towards a second entrance. Speleothems include stalactites, stalagmites, and flowstone, along with the occasional stalagnate and coralloids.
