Grotte du Grand Roc

Around 3km northwest of Les Eyzies along the D47, this cave contains an array of glittering stalactites and stalagmites. A joint ticket (adult/child €11/6) includes adjacent Abri de Laugerie Basse, a rock shelter originally occupied by Cro-Magnon people and still used until recent times.
