Got back Sunday night after a couple days cave driving in France. The place was intense. Glad I got my rocksliders on! Landy was great, didn't skip a beat. Did have a puncture this morning though but not bad considering!

It was pretty noisy down there - sounded nasty when my car jumped out of diff lock a couple times. It was really cold as well - about 10-12 degrees. Even though it was blazing hot outside, you could see your breath in the air.

I loved it, once I got over the worries about breaking my car! haha
 
Wow, feckin' wow indeed .. ;)

How did you get there, who set it up, how much did it cost, when we going ????

I feel the need ... ;)

We went with the four wheel drive club www.fourwheeldriveclub.com

It was £150 for a car and two people, plus £10 each for passengers. Included ferry from dover, BBQ dinner, BBQ breakfast, BBQ lunch and camping on the site for the night. I'll try and find out who they had to arrange it through!
 
PM me the route details that looks good.. Might have to organise an LZ caving trip :D :D

Nice.

You didn't happen to have a gps/memory map running did you .. or would you send me a route please??? Be very interested in doing that, maybe get a LZ group tour going .. ;)
 
I didn't have my GPS running on the way but I know roughly where to go. It's out in the middle of nowhere though! We met up with a guide at a supermarket and he took us the rest of the way.

Someone's made a decent video of the caves (mine came out ****)

PM me what you have got & I'll google for a guides, Access arrangements etc.
 
Same here, be very interested in running a trip. Can you give us even just where they are near? Town etc .. I'll try to do the rest .. ;)
 
I've realised I probably shouldn't have given out this location due to an agreement made with the owners, sorry guys!
