Caves and Karst Landscapes of France

Beneath the gentle hills of southern France lies a hidden continent — tens of thousands of caves, underground rivers, colossal caverns, and some of the most important prehistoric art sites on Earth. France's limestone geology, particularly in the of the southern Massif Central and the valleys of the Dordogne, Lot, and Ardèche, has created one of the world's richest karst landscapes.
