Pou Meyssen

Pou Meyssen is an advanced cave diving site in the Midi-Pyrénées of France, where a Pyrenean karst spring conceals a siphon entrance to underground passages. The Occitan-influenced name reflects the deep cultural roots of this mountainous region. The submerged cave system requires full cave diving certification and cold-water technical diving experience. The spring water flowing from the limestone bedrock provides clear visibility, revealing the passage architecture carved by underground rivers over geological time. Cool water temperatures of 8-10°C demand dry suit diving with adequate thermal undergarments. Pou Meyssen offers serious cave diving at altitude, combining speleological exploration with the rugged beauty of the Pyrenees.
