Description
I suggest you go together to discover the Jubéo cave to experience a caving exploration with friends or family with your children. Indeed, this outing is entirely suitable for beginners aged 8 and over.
In the heart of the Sisteron territory and the Buëch valley, you can gently introduce yourself to caving in this horizontal cave. Stalactites, Stalagmites, history, reading landscapes and cave fauna: this is a new world that opens up to you!
You will live an unusual experience in this easy cavity, which guarantees you a total change of scenery under the mountains of the Baronnies Provençales.
The activity time is approximately 3.5 hours and the route can be done by people who have never done caving before. Do not hesitate to contact me in case of medical problems.
If you want to experience other great adventures in the region, I also recommend:
- a caving exploration of the Foutarasse cave in Saint-Julien-en-Beauchêne,
- sports caving in the heart of the Dévoluy massif in the Puits des Bans,
- the discovery of the Resurrection cave in the Buëch valley,
- the Tune via sousterrata in Superdévoluy,
