First opened for tourism in 1899 the Gouffre de Padirac consists of a 100m deep sink-hole that opens into an underground river that runs for 40km. The first 2 km were made navigable by small boats in the 1930's and have been a favourite with tourists ever since.
Descent!
View from below. Many stairs!
Emma's only photo of the underground river. The crafty frogs don't allow photos and are only too happy to sell you one or two on the way out!
