Closed. Opens at 13:30 p.m.

Come and experience a unique underground adventure north of the Loire!

Margot Cave, with its rooms carved out of limestone, is steeped in mystery. The strange legend of Margot is intertwined with bats and prehistoric engravings, which will be presented to you during a guided tour.

The Rochefort cave reveals prehistoric human traces thanks to the archaeological excavation site and a chasm about fifteen meters deep, in which you can admire stalactites, stalagmites and a small underground lake.

Outside in the valley, you can take hiking trails, visit the Prehistory Museum, picnic by the river, try climbing and caving...

Reservations for the caves are mandatory throughout the year:
Online booking and payment.
