Been looking for thoses abandonned caves without succes. Great shot !

What a pity, the most famous one is the Henraux abandoned cave, other curious spot is the monte forato swing, a huge swing hanging from a natural arc on top of a mountain

Never too late, I m going around there in 2 weeks ! Is the swing always there ? Thanks for the info!
