The dive

Juriško vrelo is a resurgence in the Đalovića gorge, part of the same Medúza project of the Czech Speleological Society as the Đalovića pećina.

Strong current in sump 1; no communication from the cave to the surface and no cave rescue service in the region: an accident beyond the deeper sumps would be extremely hard to rescue.
Profile and sections

Juriško vrelo is a resurgence in the Đalovića gorge, part of the same Medúza project of the Czech Speleological Society as the Đalovića pećina. Czech cavers have dived here since 2008: the first sump is about 350 m long and drops to 50 m, in strong current. Beyond it follow a second sump and a dry river passage, and in the third sump a diver on dual rebreathers got ~300 m in, to ~80 m.

Practical: information only.
