But not accessible. Only a very short distance we could crawl in earlier than children. Even that will not work anymore. Legends tell of passages to the neighboring villages. If that's true ... who knows ...

Mountain biking

I've heard and read a lot about the French Cave. There are many legends floating around. The residents of Tanna are said to have hidden there from Napoleon's troops. Allegedly there are passages leading from the cave through the mountain. I find it quite small, just a small hole. Only God knows whether everything that is said about it is true.
But in every legend, story there is always a bit of truth. 🤔
