Beautiful rock formations at Les Awirs with caves and climbing rocks

The bank was no longer there

Located in the Solières valley near Huy, the Trou Manto cave is a limestone cave with a complex network of tunnels. Access is via a steep path supported by a rope. The cave has three levels with magnificent stalactites, a sloping floor with collapses, and twelve large columns supporting the vaults. The entire structure is an impressive karst phenomenon, approximately 600 meters long and 48 meters deep. The cave is protected and fenced off due to vandalism and to protect bats; visits are only possible with a guide or a caving association. The cave is known for its diverse hydrological phenomena and the legend of the Nutons, gnome-like helper beings from folklore. This combination of nature, history, and mythology makes Trou Manto a special place.

The Caverne des Romains is located at the top of the slope, 70 meters upstream from Trou-Manto. This southwest-facing rock is 12 meters high and 24 meters long. A beautiful porch forms an arcade 5 to 6 meters high, 10 meters wide, and 6 to 7 meters deep; it is made of compact limestone. It is more of a "rock shelter" than a true cavern or grotto, but it also makes a very beautiful climbing rock...

A collection of four caves, two of which are closed off as bat roosts. A steep climb or descent over a rocky path is definitely worth it.

The complex originally consisted of four caves, some of which have now disappeared due to natural collapse and the proximity of quarries. The caves have been protected as cultural heritage in Wallonia since 1978 and have an exceptional status due to their scientific value. Although the caves themselves are currently not open to the public, the site remains an important archaeological and natural history location that visualizes the evolution of humanity.

This is a cave I used to visit a long time ago. Before, you could start at the very bottom and work your way up to the top of the quarry. Now, I don't think that's possible anymore.
