A perfect experience to involve the little ones, and that's how we offered it to our client when they asked us to organise something unique for the team and their families.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Montserrat massif hides more than 100 caves within it, but we visited Les Coves del Salnitre, located in Collbat\u00f3, the only one that allows for a 500-metre-long underground walk with tourist facilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saltpetre is a mineral formed by the accumulation of droppings from the many bat colonies that inhabited the caves; the decomposition of the droppings on the limestone rock eventually formed this precious mineral.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After leaving the car in a car park near the caves, we had to climb the 286 steps up the hillside, a toll that must be paid to enjoy this captivating landscape that is well worth discovering: chambers, passageways, galleries, waterfalls, stalactites, stalagmites, columns, all explained meticulously by guides.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We were told that Montserrat is a mountain steeped in mystery and magic, and that, like any self-respecting cave, this one also has its legends. It seems that here, with the imminent arrival of the French, Mansuet Box\u00f3, a blacksmith from Collbat\u00f3, took refuge. Once discovered, Mansuet dropped a copper cauldron into a well, which, every time it struck the walls, made the cave resound, as if the mountain were collapsing. This caused the French to flee Collbat\u00f3 in fright.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a
