Cette liste est produite automatiquement à partir de ma Base
de données des grandes grottes du monde; elle est bien sur très
incomplète, et est destinée à être en évolution permanente.
Vos contributions sont les bienvenues.
J'accepte dans la base de données toutes les grottes dépassant 300m de profondeur ou 3kms de longueur. Toutes doivent être munies d'une référence bibliographique. Avant de m'envoyer vos données, jetez un oeil à ma page d'explications
