List of longest and deepest caves

It includes all the caves in the Slovenian cave registry, at least 1,000 m long and at least 300 m deep (April 2019).[3] The list is sorted on a cave score, obtained as a sum of normalized length (divided by the length of the longest cave, multiplied by 100) and depth (divided by the depth of the deepest cave times 100) - maximal possible score would be 200.
