    Unique and fascinating, what nature can create. I've never seen anything like it before. Great lighting effects that showcase the stones even better, as well as a guide who is truly passionate and patiently explains everything you want to know. The best part – you can just relax and let it all sink in; the tour was completely unhurried and there was no rush. Thank you!

    La grotte de Maxange (contraction de Maximilien+Angel, les decouvreurs père et fils) est repérée en 2000, ouverte au public en 2003 et classée en 2013. La visite se fait à pieds sur environ 200 m. Ce qui est rarissime dans cette grotte (comparée à d'autres) c'est la quantité impressionnante de cristallisations excentriques de calcite, plus belles les unes que les autres, tant par leurs tailles que par leurs couleurs, du blanc à l'ocre). Également de belles stalactites, quelques stalagmites et de beaux bouquets d'aragonite. Quelques traces de griffes d'ours prouvent la présence de ces animaux il y a quelques dizaines de millénaires.

    4 / 5 Reviews posted by 765nickf (Ipswich, United Kingdom) on 27/09/2022

    Very well worth a visit, tour in French but guide spoke good English and with written handout all was good. The way the cave is lit adds to appeal.

    Lovely cave where we took our somewhat reluctant 7 and 11 year old boys. They loved it with spectacular stalactites and unusually shaped formations in vast quantities. Well worth the time to visit
