Top 7 Caves 낭트 주변

Balsams are natural cavities that open among the rock. Located in the cliffs, they first served as shelter for wild animals, prehistoric men and then shepherds. That of Figuier offers a majestic view of the valley it overlooks.

Impressive cave which extends over three floors. Populated since the Neolithic period, tools, pottery and bones dating from the Bronze Age have also been found there.

La Baume du Boffi is one of the most impressive balms overlooking the Dourbie valley. Like many others, it was once converted into a sheepfold (jasse).

Balms are cavities open to the outside and more or less deep. They have been frequented since the dawn of time, first by wild animals then prehistoric men, followed by shepherds... and now by tourists. That of the Fig tree is particularly photogenic.

Like its sister, this cave was occupied from the Mesolithic. A limestone plaque was found there by archaeologists, suggesting a religious significance.

Cave occupied for more than 10,000 years. Traces of occupation dating back to -9500 years BC have indeed been found up to the remains of an old sheepfold occupied until the 19th century.
