The Grotte des Escabasses, also called Grotte de la Vipère or Grotte de Trioulet or Grotte du Bois Noir, is a prehistoric decorated cave located in the Lot department, on the territory of the commune of Thémines at a place called Carrière Ferrade.

The decoration of the cave of Escabasses can date from a period between the Gravettian and the ancient Magdalenian.
