Tips

Chloé Perceval

A stone's throw from the Chéran, the Grotte de Prérouge is an incredible site, even if it seems rather unimpressive at first glance. The entrance to the cave is discreet, but it gives access to one of the most important underground networks in Savoy: 55 kilometers of galleries that extend to the foot of Mount Revard. It is a paradise for speleologists, who regularly roam these limestone depths! Be careful, if you find yourself in the area during periods of heavy rains, you should know that the water can quickly rise in the cave, to the point of drowning certain passages. It is therefore not recommended to venture into the cave.
