Sports and leisure activities Bordes-Sur-Arize

The Spéléo Club de l'Arize (SCAr) is a caving association based in Les Bordes-sur-Arize. Founded in 1975, the club organizes explorations and prospecting in the Ariège massifs and abroad, with notable discoveries such as the Unjat network. In addition to exploration and classic visits, the club is also involved in scientific activities such as monitoring cave fauna and studying karst evolution. The SCA collaborates with researchers in fields such as archaeology, hydrology and geology. The club also offers training courses for its members and welcomes new members at the Journée Nationale de Spéléologie et de Canyon. In 2014, a canyon section was opened. The Spéléo Club de l'Arize is also very involved with Secours Spéléo Français. The club's president is Nicole Ravaïau.
