Practical information

Course of events

You meet your guide at the car park of the Flaine road in Balme. You wear your equipment and start an approach walk of 5 minutes to the entrance of the cave.

You first walk through large galleries without obstacles. Then the galleries become more aquatic: you have to walk in the water to continue your exploration. After that, you cross some easy obstacles and arrive in a room that marks the end of this excursion.

On the way back, you take a more technical variant (not mandatory) with a narrower passage and a more varied path.
