Vallorbe Caves

About

In 1961, divers exploring a siphon happened on this 3 kilometer network of caves that are still being explored to this day. Visitors can explore the cave complex without a guide, walking through caverns filled with waterfalls and whirlpools, stalagmites and fistulas. The experience is improved by user-activated light shows which highlight the cave’s unusual features. At the end of the tour, a faerie invites visitors to the Fairy Treasure Trove - a collection of over 250 gems and minerals from around the world. Please note: the caves are a constant 10 C, and 100% humidity, so warm clothing is advised. The caves are closed December, January, and February.
