Owner's Message
Accessible by car on a forest track 1.8 km, she reveals, 20 minutes from Grasse and 60 meters below the earth, the secrets and the beauty of a fascinating and mysterious world.
Souterroscope
A unique festival of shapes, colors and music to magnify the creative work of Nature
To better discover and enjoy the scenery and mineral fantasies, fruits from the slow water and limestone, man has added the sound and light. Thus was born the Souterroscope, a museum show that brings the visitor's emotion and feelings similar to those of caver discovered gradually, by the light of his lamp, the infinity of forms and colors of the limestone.
Throughout a scenic loop of 700 meters, guided by an original score by composer Christophe Guyard and a subtle play of shadows and pretending to give life to the cave lights, you will experience a sensory journey that is both captivating fun and educational.

First, the track that you must take to get there. Many hole dust... Parking on site is available worries park. The setting is really nice. The visit is not really guided. One gives you a flashlight and explains the tour and what is inside and after is to manage your visit that lasts about 1:00.
The caves are magnificent, truly superb, however the musical entertainment are worthless. A species professional singer who burst the tympanums than anything else. The bright show is also rather disappointing, lights that work on both sides to show small statues in the shape of a dragon.
The exit is very nice. However, probably bring walking shoes as it runs and there are many steps.
