Gouffre Mirolda is a karstic cave located in the Haut-Giffre mountain range, in the commune of Samoëns, Haute-Savoie, France. It is connected to the Lucien Bouclier cave network, and has a depth of 1733 m.
The cave was discovered in 1971 by Marc Degrinis, a shepherd. The cave was measured to be 1733 m deep, making it the deepest natural cave in the world from January 2003 until July 2004, when it was passed by the cave Krubera-Voronja in Abkhazia. It is the deepest cave in France. The cave's name is derived from the forenames of the Rhodanien cavers Michel Schmidt, Roland Chenevier, and Daniel Trouilleux, who were lost in a flood in Gournier Cave in November 1976.
