Caverns, Caves, Grottos
Ardèche Gorges Grottos
About some of the grottos and caverns in the upper Ardèche Gorges, especially the ones that can be visited.
Chauvet Grotto
A fabulous prehistoric grotto in the Ardèche gorges with hundreds of 36,000-year-old figurative wall paintings, discovered in 1994 and preserved in its pristine condition.
Pont d'Arc Cavern
The largest decorated replica cavern in the world, just a few km from the original Chauvet Grotto, with the life-sized, decorated walls and artifacts duplicated in absolute detail, in caverns with the same layout, temperatures and ambiance as the original.
