Visitors travel through a magical world as the path leads them from Vallorbe to the caves hidden away at the foot of the rocky cirque, where the source of the River Orbe lies.
Corridors, stairs, and galleries make this wonderful cave accessible: strangely-shaped stalactites and stalagmites, columns, vaults and other unusual features all make for interesting viewing along the underground pathway leading through the grottos.
How to get there:
By car: take the motorway and exit at Vallorbe, then follow the brown signs which will lead you straight to the village.
