Timeline

  1. 09:00

    Ondal Fortress

    Arrive at Ondal Fortress exactly at 09:00. Purchase your admission ticket, which covers both the fortress grounds and the cave. Use this early window to walk through the dozens of buildings at your own pace.

  2. 09:45

    Ondal Fortress

    Head straight to the limestone cave. The tour takes about thirty minutes to complete. Since you started early, you will likely have the cave to yourself or with very few other visitors.

  3. 10:45

    Ondal Fortress

    Exit the cave and take a break inside the fortress complex. Since there are no food or drink shops listed in the immediate vicinity, use this time to rest on the grounds before leaving.

Local tip

If you want to dress up in traditional formal clothing and have your picture taken, this is an extra fee. You can do this after your cave tour if you have time.
