Dargilan or Pink Cave, discovered in 1880, where you can observe tubular concretions and explore underground chambers

Known as "the pink cave", Dargilan owes its particular hue to iron oxide, which dresses its walls in a dazzling palette of pinks, yellows and ochres. Discovered by chance, it wasn't really explored until 1888. Quickly recognized for its exceptional features, it was developed in 1890. With its concretions and crystallizations, and evocative names such as the draperies, the great bell tower, the waterfall and the mosque, the cave is home to one of the largest underground chambers in France.

Magnifique grotte qui vaut vraiment la visite ne serait ce que pour l'époustouflante cascade pétrifiée (unique au monde de cette ampleur) et la gigantesque colonne en fin de parcours. Guide compétente et très sympathique. Prix pratiqués au bar très raisonnables. Tout est réuni pour vous faire passer un très bon moment.

Geweldig mooie grotten en zeer groot. Jammer dat de gids geen moeite deed heel af en toe iets in het Engels te melden tegen ons. Terwijl hij ons zelf de tickets had verkocht en wist dat wij geen Frans spraken. Vooral de waarschuwingen ivm gladde vloer ed had toch wel even gemogen. We kregen alleen een Nederlandse zeer beknopte uitleg op papier, wat je in de grot niet lezen kan. Buiten een fenomenaal uitzicht.

J’ai adoré la visite de la grotte de Dargilan ! C’était tout simplement magnifique à voir. Les formations naturelles sont impressionnantes, et le parcours est bien aménagé pour profiter pleinement de ce site exceptionnel. Une belle découverte que je recommande vivement à tous les amoureux de nature et de géologie !
