ACCESSIBILITY
At some point in our lives, we may all be faced with a temporary or permanent disability, due to a variety of circumstances such as injury, accident, pregnancy, ageing, etc.
With this in mind, Aven Armand is committed to offering everyone the chance to visit our cave in a safe, comfortable and unforgettable way. Our team is here to support you and ensure that your visit is tailored to your needs. Contact us on 04 66 45 61 31.

Deaf and hearing impaired
Tickets can be booked directly by email.
At reception, our staff are attentive to the needs of people who are deaf or have hearing difficulties by adapting their speech in writing or by lip-reading.
In addition, a paper document is distributed to complement the visit.
Mental disability
Our guides adapt their tours to meet the needs of all visitors, paying particular attention to the needs of people with mental disabilities.
There are no narrow passages in the cave apart from the funicular, and the lighting is fairly dim. The balcony is at a depth of 70m.
In addition, a FALC document is distributed as a supplement to the tour.
Motor disability
The Aven Armand site is accessible for people with reduced mobility. The car park has spaces for people with reduced mobility. The reception, shop, Speleo Café and toilets are accessible.
Unfortunately, due to the topography of the cave, the visit is not accessible to people with severe motor disabilities. The entrance to the funicular is via steps, and the tour involves descending some 200 irregular steps and climbing back up nearly a hundred.
We are currently working on developing an alternative, immersive above-ground experience.
Sight impairment
Guide dogs are allowed on-site and during tours.
The cave is equipped with illuminated steps and railings.
The tour booklet is available in digital format and can be read by reading software.
Our guides are available to point out any obstacles aloud and describe the scenery.
