In summer it offers a shady place to take a break and relax. A bench and several small stools provide seating. A donation box is of course also available.

Nice little Marian grotto which you pass on the way to the rocky summit. Perfect for a short stopover. There are benches.

Small, neat statue of the Virgin Mary in a manageable grotto. The paved area with a bench in front of it allows a short rest.
