Gouffre de Padirac

We arrived at Padirac and saw the huge abyss into which we were about to descend.

 
 

With some massive displays of bravery and many fears overcome we descended 568 steps and found the underground river in the caves at Padirac. 

We followed the winding paths into the caves, admiring the amazing stalagmites and stalactites as well as the crystal clear lakes and waterfalls. 

 

568 steps, or a lift later, we emerged into the daylight (alas there is no sun yet!) and are eating our picnics in the park before heading off to a supermarket for a spot of last minute shopping!
