Lombrives Cave

From Rivière souterraine de Labouïche we travelled 20 miles south and right to the edge of the Pyrenees mountains to our second activity of the day, Lombrives Cave and we purposefully arrived here super early to make lunch and chill out before our tour started at 3pm because having done the longest underground river in Europe we were now going to do the largest cave in Europe. However we didn’t chill out much because we had to park in the sun which has finally decided to show itself and it was 36° outside and 30° inside.
We started our tour at 3pm with a 1km hike up the side of the mountain to get to the cave entrance. We could have taken the land train but I didn’t book it.
Once at the cave entrance our guide told us he didn’t speak English but we didn’t really care.
Inside Lombrives it is absolutely huge. Pictures just can’t do it justice and fortunately we had plenty of time to get pictures as we kept stopping for our guide to explain stuff in French. This tour lasted 2 1/2 hours and took us 2km into the caves it really was amazing.
When we came out it was 5:45pm and luckily he let everyone take the land train down which got us back to Wanda quicker.Read more
