After a climb of about 45 minutes along a winding path and up steps looking out on the life-size depiction of the Crucifixion of Jesus, you arrive at the esplanade of the cave, with an exceptionally beautiful panorama before you. The temperature inside is 13°C, in winter and summer. To the right of the cave entrance, against the rock face, is a seminary that is still active.
Whether your visit is motivated by the vocation of a pilgrim, a desire for reflection, a strong desire for wilderness, botanical knowledge or a passion for hagiography or history, the attraction of this unusual heritage site meets every curiosity and guarantees fine hikes.
