Kunav cave is three kilometres long, with a roof that rises in places to around 35 metres, and it has two levels: a body of water the size of a river runs through the lower one. Inside there are stalactites and a natural bridge, and traces have been found showing that it was lived in in the earliest ages.
It is near the village of Kayadelen in the Varto district of Muş — 12 kilometres from Varto and 60 from the centre of Muş — and the ground around it is untouched, which is why walkers come.
