    You need the help of a speleologist to go to the source of the Huveaune which comes from this cave. You can still go quite deep without taking any risks. As soon as it leaves the cavity, the water forms bowls and has beautiful turquoise blue reflections.

      You absolutely have to go into the cave to complete the tour!
      Very easy access, you can get in standing up without any problem (1.88m)!

        The Huveaune River originates in this cave. Its short river life, which leads to Marseille, lasts only 48 kilometers. During this short distance, it drops 590 meters in altitude from its source to its mouth in the Mediterranean.
