Dargilan Cave
Dargilan or Pink Cave, discovered in 1880, where you can observe tubular concretions and explore underground chambers
It's the "pink cave of the Causse Noir", pink because of the iron oxide that creates pinks and a beautiful palette of yellows and ochres. Discovered by a young Cévennes shepherd, it wasn't explored until 1888. Its special features soon earned it a reputation, and the site was opened to visitors as early as 1890. Concretions and crystallizations rival each other in beauty. There are the draperies, the great bell tower, the waterfall, the minaret and more. Above all, the cave is home to one of France's largest underground chambers, and a 1.5 km-long trail.

Aurélien notre guide, nous as bien expliqué la grotte et son histoire (de plus au moment de la descente il préviens au gens qu'il faut descendre les marche beaucoup de marche mais les remonter aussi après ce qui peux être compliqué pour certaines personnes), nous étions en petit groupe, avec d'autres personnes sympathique.
Je recommande sans problème !
Et encore merci à notre guide !
