Located in Saint-Pé-De-Bigorre, the Grottes de Betharram is a natural site well worth a visit. A visit here is an opportunity to discover an impressive underground world. Rich in concretions and boasting superb chambers, the caves are sublimely illuminated. You're sure to be amazed as you explore the lower part, with a descent of the 80 m chasm and the discovery of the riverbed. Your visit continues with a boat trip, followed by a ride on the little train, to take in the wonders of the caves. Throughout your escapade, your guide will tell you all about the history of this site, first discovered in 1819. Note that only the upper part of the caves is accessible to people with physical disabilities. A restaurant with terrace is also available on site for a gourmet break. There's also a store selling a wide range of souvenirs. A picnic room and free parking complete the site's facilities. A good address for an unforgettable adventure!
