About this school trip

We would be delighted to take care of transport for you and your pupils to the Cave of Han in Han-sur-Lesse, one of the most beautiful caves in Europe. Accompanied by a guide, pupils enter a fascinating underground world of galleries, vast chambers, stalactites, stalagmites and an underground river.

The visit ties in with geography and history lessons: pupils learn how rocks and landforms are created, what influence rivers and rain have, and how people lived here from the Bronze Age to Roman times. In the Salle d'Armes, some 110 metres underground, the sound and light show 'Origin' takes place. An educational booklet is available to prepare for the visit, and it can be combined with the Wildlife Park.

A practical tip: the cave visit lasts between 1 hour 15 minutes and 2 hours and requires a reasonable level of fitness. Ask your pupils to bring sturdy shoes and an extra layer of clothing, and check with the cave in advance for pupils with limited mobility. ITS-Reizen takes your class to the Ardennes and back in a comfortable, safe coach.
