Message from Management
The Gouffre Géant de Cabrespine is one of the 10 most beautiful caverns in Europe, with a depth of 250 metres and a volume of 1,600,000 m³. It is unique in that it contains a diversity of formations unequalled to date.
Guided and commented tours of the Gouffre take place on balconies overlooking it 200 metres from the bottom. New facilities have been installed to enable visitors to discover the wonders of the Gouffre in a completely different and safe way. The temperature is a constant 14°c all year round, so make sure you bring something to cover up with. In low season, tours are audio-guided. You can discover the Gouffre on your own, and stay as long as you like, depending on opening times.
In 2019, the Aventures Parc was created, bringing together two activities. These two more sporting activities take place at the bottom of the Gouffre Géant de Cabrespine.
- L'Accro Grotte de Cabrespine: an underground acrobatic course featuring zip lines, monkey bridges and a Nepalese bridge. Ages 12 and up.
- La Rivière Souterraine: an introduction to caving, in the footsteps of the first explorers. Ages 10 and up.
Both activities last around 3 hours and require good physical condition. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.

Members' reviews on GOUFFRE GÉANT DE CABRESPINE
Ce lieu est époustouflant, avec une très grande variété d’activité proposée.
Hors saison, on est presque seul dans les lieux.
De sublimes concrétions et une passerelle terriblement vertigineuse sont proposés sans majoration du prix de l’entrée
