Tips

Bernd 🌲🦌🍄🥾

January 1, 2024

The cave was discovered by chance in 1900.

A young dog owner's dog had fallen into a hole. Unable to free the animal from its predicament himself, he sought help in the village to rescue the animal. Under the direction of Mr. Dubuisson, a police officer, several workers helped one of their number to descend to the bottom of the pit into which the dog had fallen. Without a lamp, the improvised rescuer rescued the dog from a height where dim daylight penetrated.

This incident quickly spread and caught the attention of a group of scientists who were roaming Belgium in search of underground cavities.

In addition to managing the site, we also offer a service based on quality.

Since 2009, the Comblain Cave has been recognized as a 3-star tourist attraction.

In Wallonia, the tourist attraction is a protected designation awarded by the General Tourism Commission with a series of "suns" depending on the level of excellence and professionalism of the tourist infrastructure.

Since 2013, the Comblain Cave has been labeled Wallonie, Destination Qualité.
