The Grottes de Cougnac, Peyrignac, near Gourdon,
in the Lot, has one of the finest cave ceilings in France.
Fantastic rock formations and stalactites, highlighted by the dramatic
lighting, are in abundance... a feast for the eyes.
But the claim to fame of the Grottes de Cougnac has to rest firmly
on the magnificent prehistoric paintings.
Ibex, mammoths, deer, symbols, signs and human outlines all vie
for your attention and wonder.
