    Hiking

    This cave, which houses a small statue of the Virgin and a few crosses, is several meters below the rocky outcrop known by the unofficial name of Crêt de la Marie.

    A certain Marie would have lived there as a hermit in the Middle Ages. The dangerousness of the site and the high mountain climate that reigns there obviously make this legend highly improbable. It would in fact be a hoax set up in the 19th century.

    Super beautiful cave and in the evening the sun even shines in! Just a bit damp and you should definitely not try to climb!
