The surface pool.
The cave is located in the south of France in the department named Herault. It has been prevoiusly explored by Ludovic Giordano, Reinhard Buchaly and other cave divers to around 1300 m (4265 ft).
This cave is on private property and should only be dived with a permit by the owner. This helps to secure the access for future diving projects and also means that results will be put together. As to date, we have no information from the previous expeditions. The previously laid lines did not even have distance markers for measuring the cave.
Getting there is not easy. The last 20 minutes are on a rocky road and a small bridge which is pretty hard to pass.
