FONT DE GAUME Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

signyred: I put this cache here to attract people to the caves and encourage more visitors (not that they need them in the height of the season!) However, if the Office people have removed it because they feel it's attracting too many cachers then it's got to go, especially as I see it hasn't attracted a single favourite point [:(]. Can't say I'm really surprised about that though as it was only ever a roadside micro!!

Geocache Description:

A simple micro cache next to the booking office for the oldest attraction in Les Eyzies.

Un micro cache simple, à côté du bureau de réservation pour la plus ancienne attraction des Eyzies.


In 1979 UNESCO placed Les Combarelles and Le Font de Gaume on the World Heritage List. If you want to visit the caves to see the prehistoric engravings (Les Combarelles ) or polychrome paintings (Le Font de Gaume) you need to make a booking, usually several days in advance, at the ticket office.
However, you do not have to pay to reach this cache which is outside and to the rear of the booking office, where there is room for one or two cars to pull up. However, you could use the proper car park and have a good nose around.

En 1979 les grottes 'Les Combarelles'et 'Le Font de Gaume' etaient place par UNESCO sur la liste des Patrimoine Mondiale. Si vous voudrez visiter ces sites, on a besoin de faire une reservation, quelques jours en avance normalement.
Cepandant, vous n'avez besoin de payer pour trouver ce cache, vous pouvez ramasser arriere l'exterior de la billeterie.

A HUGE THANK YOU to Chipmunks 78 for performing maintenance on this cache. So much nicer than getting a "In need of repair" log! True "White knights of geocaching". Bravo to them all

Un GRAND MERCI à Chipmunks 78 pour effectuer la maintenance sur cette cache. Tellement plus agréable que d'obtenir un «besoin de réparation" log! Véritables "Chevaliers blancs de geocaching". Bravo à eux tous
