Need to Know
Challenge Rating
The activity will be guided for your comfort and safety.
Expect to walk along an easy trail, with 2 or 3 ascents or descents of vertical ladders. Take your time and everything will go smoothly. Rest assured, our ladders are fitted with handrails for a firm grip, and you won't need any equipment other than the helmet and headlamp supplied.
There is one area where the ceiling is slightly lower, requiring taller people to bend over a little, but there's no need to crawl there.
What to wear and bring
For your safety and comfort when visiting the cave, we recommend that you :
- Wear comfortable clothes and closed shoes, as the temperature inside varies between 4°C and 7°C.
- Sandals, crocs and shoes that don't fit your feet properly or protect your toes are strictly forbidden.
- Avoid wearing jewelry, luxurious or delicate clothing, as splashes and dirt are possible.
- Bring a change of clothes if you wish.
- Also avoid bringing loose or easily detachable objects. We're talking here about your phone or camera.
- Leave all valuables at home or lock them in your car.
- Bring your own snacks and drinks, but if you forget, we sell them on site.
Adult Accompaniment
For their own safety, children aged 13 and under must be accompanied by at least one adult, at the rate of one adult for every three children.
What happens if there is bad weather?
Rain or shine, we're open for business! As the cavern's activity takes place underground, rain doesn't affect it in any way. However, be prepared for a short 5-minute walk outside as you leave the cave. The rest of the adventure will be dry. Please contact us in advance or consult our refund policies.
