A lot of effort to get there

You can access the Farinet cave by passing behind the waterfall refreshment bar; the route is clear and protected. Then, let yourself be guided by the explanations of the place to discover its history.

Former gold and arsenic mines of Salanfe - Le chantier Robert. The Robert mine was the most important workyard of the mining complex of Salanfe. It was composed of two "travers-bancs" and a pit of 40m permitting ventilation and the evacuation of the minerals. A treatment station for the materials, a cantine, and a dormitory for 40 workers were located in the lower part. The working conditions were extremely difficult and rudimentary, but the quality of mineral was remarkable. In all, 1,546 tons of mineral, including 709 tonnes of arsenic and 53 kilograms of gold, were extracted between 1904 and 1928. The altitude of mines is 2195, Komoot and other online maps has an error in height.

The descent to this small illuminated grotto is very interesting.

A visit to the cave can be combined with the Cascade de Berard

If you are feeling adventurous and have a flashlight or headlamp handy, you may feel the urge to enter this cave. At first you will feel inclined to enter but shortly after entering you will feel frightened--an inexplicable feeling of dread may assail you: Nothing more irrational, there is absolutely nothing to fear in this large hole in the rock, only the drops of water from the seepage of the vault falling on your head. You will find that someone else has gone in before you and perhaps thought better of going to the toilet in a moment of desperate need. Others have decided for some reason to light a fire in the past, or leave behind garbage. All in all happy to have explored but happier to have gotten out!
