Comments
The tour is demanding, good physical condition and sturdy shoes are required.
So much beauty in one place is overwhelming.
The Choranche grotto can also be visited with a guide, we gave that to ourselves.
Somehow there were GPS dropouts in the caves, things were recorded there that didn't happen.
