Massif de la Ste Baume

Another day, another mountain...only this time we went up on foot, through a gorgeous forest, up to the site of many pilgrimages, the grotto where Mary Magdalena lived as hermit for the last 30 years of her life. The Benedictines have built a chapel there, hold daily mass, though most visitors are walkers, like us, heading to the top of the massif for the view.



From the chapel one has a clear view to the Ste. Victoire
