Prérouge Cave

Delve deep into the earth and enjoy a truly unique experience as you explore the Prérouge Cave. Suitable for beginners yet offering a real sense of adventure, this caving trip invites you to discover a fascinating underground world, shaped by thousands of years of natural history. With narrow passages, mysterious galleries and spectacular mineral formations, every step is an immersion into a world that is as playful as it is unexpected.

Exploring the Prérouge Cave is the perfect way to get started in caving – it’s a wonderful underground adventure! You’ll find labyrinthine passages, both large and small, along with stalactites and stalagmites and eroded formations that tell the story of thousands of years of geological history. Although it is suitable for beginners, the route taken to explore the cave is still a serious undertaking, with obstacles such as the ‘stinking baths’ and the ‘Marmites’ passage that will leave a lasting impression!  

 

The route is mainly horizontal, but rope-assisted sections may be required depending on the route taken. There is climbing and abseiling; the journey is fun and sometimes involves water   

 

Weather conditions must be stable for this exploration; the Prérouge Cave is accessible almost all year round provided the water level is not too high.  

 

Our caving guides and instructors are all state-certified. They have all the necessary equipment for rescue operations and organising caving trips. They will be on hand to advise you and help you discover the activity in a friendly atmosphere and in small groups. Most of our guides are locals from the Bornes, Bauges and Aravis regions, and they can advise you on other fun activities or outdoor sports.
