October 2025: The trail is closed by a gate but still worth a visit

it is found on the path to Sasso di Preguda

From the Grotta del Cepp locality, numerous paths begin that lead to Monte Boletto, Monte Bolettone and Alpe del Vicerè in the Albese Valley.

The Mother of God depicted and venerated here is the one from Lourdes. This well-known Marian pilgrimage site is located in the French Pyrenees and is visited by many people every year, including many sick people who hope for healing. The devotional image of the Mother of God has become widespread - not only in France - and believers have built Lourdes chapels and grottos everywhere. The church's memorial day for "Our Lady of Lourdes" is on February 11th, the anniversary of the apparition of the Virgin Mary (1858), when the Mother of God appeared to 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous in a rock grotto very close to Lourdes. Bernadette later became a nun and died at the age of just 35. On December 8th (the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary) 1933, she was canonized by Pope Pius XI. The commemoration of the Madonna of Lourdes is also World Day of the Sick.

Originating from the action of rain, over millions of years, on the sedimentary rock called Majolica which is nothing but the bottom of an ancient ocean from the Mesozoic era, which emerged 140 million years ago, the cave is the point of entrance to an intricate system of tunnels that develop under the Alpe del Viceré.
