The small train of the caves of Lacave
Steps: Lacave
Go for a very special train trip! The Lacave train plunges you into the bowels of the Earth for an unforgettable one and a half hour visit. A visual and sound show towards the hall of wonders, the highlight of the visit. Plunged into a near darkness where ultraviolet rays make the concretions in formation phosphorescent, you will witness the striking beauty of an underground nature unsuspected from the surface.
