The Oratoire St Antoine is a beautiful, larger oratory located along the Chemin du Praz on the eastern edge of the Pontent Leisure Park, roughly 600 meters north from the amazing Notre Dame de la Gorge at the southern end of the Montjoie Valley.
The oratory was fully restored in 1982 by local inhabitants. Inside the oratory you will find a wooden panel of Saint Anthony of the Desert, patron saint of guides and protector of animals. The inscription reads: "Go with the protection of God and may Saint Anthony and Saint Bernard keep you from danger and have you come back as healthy as when you left".
