Grotte de Boischatel, Cave system in Boischatel, Canada
The underground network spans approximately 3 kilometers through limestone passages, with chambers reaching widths of up to 12 meters and narrow corridors of 50 centimeters.
The cave formation dates back to the Ordovician period, shaped by the Ferrée River waters flowing towards the Montmorency River through sedimentary rock layers.
The Quebec Speleological Society manages and oversees all explorations and visits to this extensive underground system, preserving its geological features.
Access to the cave requires advance reservations through the Quebec Speleological Society, and visitors must be accompanied by experienced guides for safety reasons.
This cave system stands as the longest underground formation in Canada east of the Rocky Mountains, featuring three main sections including Pillar Gallery and Night River.
