Description

Have you ever heard about the caves of Vallorbe? This half-day outing is your chance to discover this amazing spot in Switzerland!

Vallorbe is a town at the foot of the Jura Mountains, along the banks of the River Orbe, near the border with France. Within the district of Jura-Nord Vaudois, it is part of the Swiss Canton of Vaud. With its rich cultural heritage and breathtaking landscapes, this spot is the perfect destination to visit year round.

On this half-day trip, we will visit the caves of Vallorbe and discover an amazing geological site as well as a place full of deep history. We will go back in time to when humans worshiped Mother Earth and find old cave paintings that will let us discover the art and legends of ancient cultures. 

Please note that this is an easy hike for the entire family. Children will love exploring the caves and I can guarantee that everyone will have fun on this unique adventure!

So, if you are up for this half-day hike to the site of ancient cave paintings in Vallorbe, please get in touch with me. Bring your children and enjoy this fun trip with them!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
