Slovenský kras je krajinný celok geomorfologickej oblasti Slovenské rudohorie. Bol tu vyhlásený Národný park Slovenský kras.
Národný park Slovenský kras sa rozprestiera na juhovýchode Slovenska. S hraničiacim Aggtelekským národným parkom (Maďarsko) tvorí jednotný celok, ktorý ako súvislé územie svojou rozlohou predstavuje najrozsiahlejšie krasové územie planinového typu v strednej Európe. Na ploche 361,65 km2 vytvára Slovenský kras svojou prírodnou a kultúrnohistorickou rozmanitosťou jednu z najkrajších oblastí Slovenska. Za chránenú krajinnú oblasť bol Slovenský kras vyhlásený v roku 1973 a v roku 1977 bol ako prvý na Slovensku zaradený do medzinárodnej siete biosférických rezervácií v rámci programu UNESCO Človek a biosféra a patrí tak medzi jednu zo štyroch slovenských.[1].
