Rivière souterraine de Labouiche
Boat trip on an underground river
Six kilometres north-west of Foix you travel by boat for around 1.5 kilometres along a river inside the mountain, past stalactites and little waterfalls – changing boats twice along the way. The river was explored in 1908 and has been open to visitors since 1938. The trip takes 75 minutes.
TipsIt is cool inside the mountain – bring a jumper. Book in summer.
