In this wild valley of the Bargy massif, calm and beauty await you. We will meet more sheep and ibex than hikers. A grassy balcony ideal for the snack break.
Dug at the foot of a cliff, these caves will allow you to take stock of the work of water erosion on the limestone, without forgetting to take advantage of the rich flora and fauna of this massif. The exploration of the cave is reserved for speleologists.
