At the Grotte de Choranche : Brasserie Le Gournier 

 

The brasserie is closed for the 2023 season. We didn't manage to recrute a staff to re open it. Instead, we propose from may to september 2023, a snacking restauration.

Picnicking at the Grotte de Choranche site

 

To safeguard this natural site, picnics are prohibited in our car park, outside the cavern, and on nearby paths.

Our terrace is available for bar customers to have a picnic

Our bar and its panoramic terrace are open all year round. 

Just a few kilometres from the Grotte de Choranche, you can enjoy the pleasant picnic area in the village of Choranche – or, a little further away, the picnic area in Pont-en-Royans, with a view of the hanging houses. Both picnic areas are by the River Bourne.
