Date Added: 1st Dec 2019
Site Type: Cave or Rock Shelter
Country: France (Aquitaine:Dordogne (24))
Visited: Would like to visit
Grotte de Bernifal submitted by TheCaptain on 13th Jan 2011. This cave was discovered in 1905 and contains engravings of humans as well as the more usual animals.
It was closed to visitors when I visited in May 2005, but nevertheless it was a nice walk through splendid woodland with a little stream running nearby up to the entrance.

It was discovered in about 1909, and still bears the scars of the picks used in the excavations, and some of the animals were destroyed. There are horses, bison and the main event, a 2 metre long horse and bison combined, the bison looking to the left, while the horse looks to the right.
