Grotte de l'Aguzou

The Aguzou cave system extends through 6 kilometers of limestone galleries, with 1500 meters accessible for exploration under guided supervision.

The entrance section was documented in 1893 by M. Gavoy in the Scientific Studies Society of Aude bulletin, leading to further explorations in the 1920s.

The cave remains in its original state without artificial lighting installations, allowing visitors to experience genuine underground exploration conditions.

Tours require advance reservations and include all necessary equipment such as helmets, lights, and protective clothing for groups of 2 to 12 participants.

Scientists discovered an endemic species named Onychiurus cf. aguzouensis in 1978, adding to the cave's geological and biological importance.
