Grottes de Blanot

In the heart of the Monts du Mâconnais, at the foot of Mont Saint-Romain, lies the jewel of the Clunisois: the Grottes de Blanot.
The main cave, the grotte-gouffre de la Cailleverdière, so named because of the vegetation surrounding the karst where it was formed, was discovered in 1700 and explored a few decades later by Doctor Dumolin, a pioneer of speleology.
Since then, it has never ceased to amaze visitors!

A visit to the cave abyss will take you deep into the earth at a depth of over 80m, to the heart of a vast network of galleries interspersed with rooms, each more curious and impressive than the last.
A loop of around an hour with a passionate guide who will tell you all about the history of this chasm and the fauna that inhabits it.

In season, come and join our caving trips every Friday evening: plunge into the depths of the chasm, in the footsteps of the first explorers, between rock and clay...
