Caving

We are delighted to present to you an unforgettable underground adventure at famous Georges Chasm, through the Tube entrance!

To begin your adventure, we'll start with a classic caving initiation. This step is essential for learning the basics of caving and familiarizing yourself with the underground environment. We'll then gradually progress to more advanced rope techniques. You'll learn how to cross handrails, descend split rappels, climb and down passages, and even climb back onto apparatus, all within gigantic spaces.

Our first descent will take us to the "Famine Room", located at an impressive depth of -200 meters. We will have a picnic in this large historic room to regain our strength! Depending on the number and level of participants, we will be able to choose between different options for the rest of our exploration, in order to best adapt to each person and make this adventure accessible to all.

The George Chasm is famous for its extraordinary dimensions. It's a huge chasm that offers an unforgettable experience for all fans of sporting excellence. To fully enjoy this unique experience, we recommend forming a small group. This facilitates learning, limits waiting times between obstacles, and allows for an even richer experience!

In short, the George Chasm via the Tube entrance is an unforgettable underground adventure, accessible to all levels. With a classic caving initiation and progressively improving your rope techniques, you'll be ready to explore this unique environment.

We look forward to accompanying you on this incredible experience and helping you discover the hidden wonders of nature!
