France - Midi-Pyrénées
Gouffre de Padirac
( Sightseeing / Archaeological Sites )
A Karen Brown Recommendation
|
Padirac, France
|
A gouffre is a great opening in the ground, and this wide circular chimney of Padirac, the Gouffre de Padirac, was formed by the roof of a cave falling in. This impressive grotto leads over 100 meters underground to a mysterious river where the visitor can negotiate a stretch of some 500 meters by boat to discover the sparkling Lac de la Pluie (Lake of Rain) and its huge stalactite in the immense Great Dome room with its vault rising up 90 meters. The roof lies quite near the surface and it is almost inevitable that it too will one day collapse to form another chasm. (Open Apr to Oct. Allow approximately 1½ hours for a guided tour, tel: 05.65.33.64.56.)
