Description by the author

Short walk that starts at the chapel of Ollomont. The chapel and cemetery are embraced by an old slate wall that takes us back to the eleventh century AD. In this beautiful area you will find the Cresse Sainte-Marguerite, a steep rock about 20 meters high with the statue of the Saint in the niche at the very top of the summit. A popular legend tells us that a woman retreated into the cave until she suddenly disappeared for good.
