The entrance to the Kadet-Dorbun Cave is a square opening located on a cape 400 meters northwest of the television repeater. Its length is 259 meters. The cave was formed by the action of groundwater in the cracks of thick layers of upper Jurassic limestone of the Oxfordian stage. Because of this, the cave walls have a stepped shape, and the floor and ceiling are quite even. The entire cave is tilted in accordance with the dip of the strata to the north-northeast at an angle of 7-12 degrees. Most of the cave consists of narrow passages, as well as several small halls, such as the Entrance, Ghostly, Museum, Typhoon, Triangle, Hope, and Aragonite. In the cave, you can see speleothems represented by old rusty stalactites and stalagmites, which begin to appear from the middle of the cavity.
