How to get there
At the source of the Klokot, at the foot of the Plješevica a few hundred metres from the Željava airfield, west of Bihać. Next to the spring stands a waterworks (OpenStreetMap): it is a drinking-water source, so ask whether and how you may dive. Una Aquarius in Bihać organises cave dives in the area for certified, experienced divers in groups; its site names no caves, so ask whether Klokot is one of them.
