Hiking
A little bit of info from Wikipedia:
"Mary's grottos are referred to as Lourdes grottos, which are replicas of the grotto of Massabielle near Lourdes in southern France and Our Lady of Lourdes. According to her own statements, St. Bernadette saw the Mother of God in this grotto in 1858. A Madonna figure adorns the grotto at the place of the Marian apparitions, the original of which Joseph-Hugues Fabisch created for Massabielle in 1864 according to Bernadette's instructions."
The representation is always in a grotto and one always sees a girl kneeling at a distance in front of Mary.
