Between Mount Aigoual, Gorges du Tarn and Millau viaduct, discover the largest cave of Causses and Cévennes: its one-of-a-kind draperie (2000m²), its vivid natural colors. On a 1km circuit in a magical world, Dargilan cave is a *** site that offers diverse concretions and amazing natural colors (pink cave nickname). This will stay engraved in your memory. Some LED dynamic lighting, all the while protecting the cave even more, helped reveal this colored cavity, its unsuspected details and its gorgeous volumes. “If you think you know the most beautiful caves in Europe, go see Dargilan.”, wrote E.A. Martel, father of modern speleology. “The theatre I have been dreaming about” – Jean Cocteau
