This page lists the lengths, depths and horizontal extents of those caves on the plateau for which we have survey centerline data. At present, that's only 117 out of 250 or so, but the missing ones are mostly very small and obscure; the notable exceptions are some caves explored by other groups (35, LA25, BS17), and CUCC caves 71, 92, 96 and 97.
The constitutent parts of the Schwarzmooskogel master system (32, 40, 41, 78, 83, 87, 88, 107, 115, 136, 142, 143, 144, 161, 204, 258, and 264) are listed separately in the table, although in some cases there is some ambiguity as to where to draw the lines; but for comparison I have also included the measurements of the whole system.
In these tables "length" means the total length of (non-duplicated) survey legs, not just the horizontal components, but "extent" is the maximum horizontal distance between any two survey stations.

This page used to house a list of the deepest and longest caves in Austria, with ours highlighted. Rather than maintaining our own independent database, it seems much more sensible to link to the much more frequently updated list here maintained by Theo Pfarr. For comparison, Bob Gulden of the American NSS maintains a list here of the world's longest caves.
