Breathtaking views, even though it was raining we could see it all with almost no effort. There are lots of stairs and might not be accessible to people with disabilities. It is an incredible...

Good deal of walking through these caves which were the centre of the witch rituals and sabbaths in the 1600s. Worth visiting after the museum and bring sensible shoes as the rocks can be slippy...

Beautiful short trail with the monumental cave. Diverse types of plants along the slope. The place is well taken care of. There is a tiny waterfall crossing the cave. You can spot some people walking their dogs. The trail is not too long to spend a little time for exercise after your heavy meal.

Great trip, on a hot day the caves were really cool and refreshing. We paid €11 for two of us. I would recommend taking something to eat as there’s nothing local that I can recommend and the cave has a few really great spots to sit and eat.

Was a very nice connexion with the nature and to follow Up a ubique story that seems to be non existing in the european new world. Our history alway Will have a great sense if we inmerse deeply in It.

I have a walking disability so for me the climb and the stairs were not so nice. If you have no problems with your legs you will like the hike. The story of the witches and the cave are interesting.

Great for less than a full day trip. The history in the museum was really interesting and helpful.
