While climbing over Son Pouses, we found the remains of buildings. Behind these, in the rocks, are large man made cavities in the rocks. We began exploring, and soon discovered there were long tunnels connecting them. The four of us spent a long time clambering through. I lost all concept of the depth of how far we went - dozens of metres at least - maybe a hundred or more. Son Pouses was a strategic point in the World War I - but my first researches indicate these placements may have been made by Austrian rather than Italian troops.

Just near the peak, a number of World War I sites have been restored and can be visited as an "open air museum" of sorts. This shot is taken from one of the trenches.
