Discover a lava tunnel formed naturally by the eruption of lava from the Piton de la Fournaise. A guide will explain everything you need to know throughout the visit. An underground caving excursion you won't soon forget!
Guided tour - 3h30 - All levels
Enjoy an absolutely unique activity: caving in lava tunnels. During this unusual experience, you'll discover the subterranean world of volcanism. Ideal for beginners or children aged 6 and over, you'll discover lava stalactites and stalagmites, perimorphs (negative tree imprints in the walls), frozen lava cascades and more...
Your guide: you'll be accompanied by a professional guide with a caving diploma and Professional Civil Liability insurance from the Syndicat des Professionnels de la Spéléo et du Canyon (SNPSC).
After an equipment session, you'll take a short 15-minute approach walk on the smooth lava flow to the tunnel entrance. You'll enjoy a coffee/tea break in the Pillar Room just before emerging from the cave.
As you progress through the galleries, your guide will talk to you about volcanism, the birth of the island, the formation of lava tunnels and much more. A timeless journey, disconnected from the world above...
