Things to see and do Vallorbe

A site accessible to the public since 1974, these caves reveal a fantastic natural spectacle: columns, stalagmites, stalactites, drapery, underground rivers. As a bonus: the discovery of the cathedral with a sound and light. After the visit, you can see a collection of 250 minerals exposed in rocky vaults and a magical decor.

Open to the public for 40 years, the Caves of Vallorbe are among the most beautiful in Europe. They took their evening to welcome the visitor in a decor worthy of the Thousand and One Nights. The walls are decorated with drapery and a soda rain (small tubes) falls within the ceilings of the different rooms. The most eccentric stalactites and stalagmites resulting from the marriage of water and limestone form an impressive "pile pile" or miniature reproduction of the Vendôme column. Trésor Treasure This trip in the basement, accompanied by the crystalline song of the Orb, ends with the discovery of the hidden treasure of the Fées: 250 minerals bursting with light beads in four alveoli dug in the rock.

Space The Cathedral. Since June 2011, a new room over 30 m high welcomes you in its centre and will make you discover its splendour thanks to a show of its light and light.

An app to visit the caves. Since June 2013, a free application on its mobile phone allows audio feedback throughout the visit. It is possible to download it in advance or directly on site thanks to Wi-Fi network.
