An old oak tree beautifully located at the roundabout in a small village of Cordonnet. There are no supermarkets or cafes here, just a picturesque little hamlet with authentic houses.

Description: The cavity looks like a wide gallery that you can easily cross following the asset until you reach the Chaos room. At this point, you take either a ramp, or a short meander traversed by the asset to reach a wide, easily traversable meander: the Galerie des Corniches. This ends at the start of a 13-meter wide shaft opening into the Balcony room. Halfway up this shaft, a 2.5-metre projection fitted with fixed gear gives access to the new network (not explored this time). At the bottom of P13, we find the river which flows in a long meander, wide at the start and a little narrower at the end (but which remains pleasant) and which comes up against an 8-meter well and two projections. It is after these three obstacles that one reaches the terminal siphon of the cavity at - 93 meters.
