My favourite spot in Crabtree
Trou de Fée
Nature
This cave has about 133 metres of galleries, largely flooded, and can be visited from mid-May to mid-October with a helmet and lighting. It is an ideal first underground experience for the whole family, provided you bring warm clothing, as it is about 6 °C inside.
