Caving activities at Aven d'Orgnac [booking required].
Information
Description
The Aven d’Orgnac offers introductory caving tours year-round, led by a passionate, state-certified guide.
* The Panoramic Descent, which lasts about 1 hour, takes you rappelling down through the cave’s natural vertical entrance (Aven). A journey 50 meters underground, just as the cave’s first explorer did one morning in August 1935.
* The “Combined Tour” combines rappelling with an aerial course—a “via cordata” (a via ferrata made of ropes)—along the cave’s ceiling at a height of 30 meters, culminating in a thrilling zip line ride (about 3 hours later)! Adrenaline guaranteed, all while respecting the cave’s natural environment: there are no chemical anchors on the walls…
* As for the Spéléominot course, it’s specially designed for 7- to 12-year-olds and set up in parts of the cave not open to visitors. Sparkling stalagmites and stalactites, boulders to climb, the discovery of new hidden chambers, and a mini via cordata… all help participants understand the stages of this natural wonder’s formation and the challenges of preserving it.
