Biserna Cave will be open to visitors from April 6, the Bulgarian Tourist Association has announced. Tourists will be able to visit the cave from Wednesday to Sunday, but only by prior registration which can be made on weekdays by calling 054/800765. 

The longest and most beautiful cave on the Shumen plateau, Biserna, attracts thousands of people every year. The route inside is about 800 metres in one direction. The cave can be reached on foot, as the forest road is not suitable for cars. It is located in the village of Kyoshkove, 1 km west of the town. It is 404 m above sea level.

The length of the cave is 2,716 m. It is inhabited by 14 species of bats.
