Cave Ideas in Pyrénées-Atlantiques

[CavingForLemons]

Looking for inspiration for Pyrenees caving - have already got some longer trips planned, now researching shorter "fun" trips...

Which caves would you reccommend for fun trips? Looking for trips roughly 4-6 hours long, everyone in the group is confident with SRT, a streamway passge would be excellent and pretty formations are always a win, but any suggestions welcome!

Also, what are the best websites/guide books/journals for English language descriptions, topos, surveys or entertaining trip reports?

We will be staying near Larrau but happy to drive ~1 - 1.5 hours for good trips (thank you everyone for your previous "where to stay" reccommendations!)

Check out Eaux-Chaudes, I have not done it myself but I think it would met your criteria. There‘s A great formation just inside the entrance
