I recommend Exit 3, the longer way back to the parking lot. There you can see a few great caves and get more impressions of the karst plain

Tour two alone was a dream. You can expect a lot of nature and above all a lot of water at high tide. Unfortunately, many paths are then closed, but this excursion is just breathtakingly beautiful 🥰
