A small path of about a hundred meters allows you to pass under the basalt flow through what looks like a cave, and to observe the rock up close. The passage requires you to lean, and it is protected from the slope by a small wall. This is not the "official" general public trail but the detour does not seem forbidden (March 2021).
The additional info: "beaume" comes from the Latin "balma", which means "cave"
