Grottes de Remouchamps, Natural cave system in Aywaille, Belgium.
Grottes de Remouchamps is a cave system in Belgian limestone featuring multiple chambers with stalactites, stalagmites, and underground waterways. The network extends several kilometers beneath the surface with varied passages for exploration.
Paleolithic hunters used the cave entrance as temporary shelter roughly 8000 years ago, leaving behind tools and settlement evidence. These early inhabitants demonstrate the long human history in this area.
The site holds protected heritage status in Wallonia and visitors today experience it as a symbol of the region's geological importance. Local people regard this place as part of their natural inheritance.
Visitors can join guided tours lasting about 75 minutes that include both walking sections and boat journeys through the passages. Guides provide explanations in French, Dutch, English, and German.
This system offers the longest underground boat journey open to the public, traveling through the subterranean Rubicon River. Visitors experience this rare combination of cave exploration and boat travel rarely found elsewhere.
