Before you go
Inside, the temperature is constant and low: dress warm. Main light and a spare, helmet, and someone outside who knows where you are and when you return. After heavy rain, active caves can flood.
There is not always phone coverage in the mountains: download the map before you go, tell someone your plan and call 112 in any emergency. These data come from OpenStreetMap and the weather forecast; confirm with the resort and official sources.
