    Cycling

    Walking within a gigantic painting that comes to life before your eyes, all to music. This is what the Carrières de Lumières offers. A unique and poetic experience

    Hiking

    The gigantic cave that remained after the bauxite mining was converted into a visual and acoustic delight. Highly recommended. Admission currently €14.50.
