    • EXPLORE THE CAVES OF PIC DU JER

      An underground family adventure

      At the top of the Pic du Jer, the caves offer a unique experience for anyone looking to combine family discovery with contact with nature. Easily accessible from the funicular station, these caves invite young and old alike to immerse themselves in a mysterious world where the history of the mountain is revealed with every step. Children love to slip through the passages, while adults enjoy the natural beauty of the rock formations and the coolness of the site. It's a family activity that combines curiosity, learning, and gentle sensations.

      Discover history and geology

      Each cave in the Pic du Jer has its own unique identity, shaped by centuries of erosion and rock movement. Visitors can admire stalactites and stalagmites, observe mineral textures, and understand how nature patiently sculpts the mountain. Explanatory panels allow visitors to learn more about the local geology, while younger visitors can learn about scientific observation in a fun way. This approach transforms the visit into a truly educational journey, where walking and discovery blend harmoniously.

      An original and friendly outing

      Exploring the caves becomes a friendly moment to share with family, friends or even a school group. The hikes to the summit of the Pic du Jer can thus be extended by a passage in these natural cavities, offering a complete experience between the outdoors, nature leisure activities and underground exploration. The combination of the funicular ride, the panoramic walk and the discovery of the caves makes each outing unique, suitable for all generations.


      To organize your visit and fully enjoy exploring the Pic du Jer caves, you can book directly through the official ticket office and prepare a day combining discovery, nature and family activities.
