The cave of Chorange

In the Vercors, near Grenoble, there is the cave of Chorange. It's a wonderful place to visit. This cave is famous in all europe because of its thousands of stalactites which are very thin and fragile.These stalactites, called soda straws are the great sights of this cave. You can visit the cave but the lanscape in the vicinity of the cave is also very beautilful (especially during autumn). During the tour you'll can see the olm, a strange prehistorical creature. Take your camera because everything is awesome. Unfortunately the only way to go there is to take the car and drive 30 minutes. However it's the best moment to go there because there is a lot of people during summer.The Chorange cave was discovered at the end of the 19th century by some inhabitants and is now restaured, so it's very easy to visit if you have some difficulties to walk. You can take your camera because all the site is spectacular. Before the visit of the cave you eat or drink a lot in the restaurant. However take your windbreak because of the weather.
