Mirabel's journey in Encanto includes a visit to Bruno's former room, but how did she manage to escape from it?

While Mirabel never got any special powers, Encanto follows her trying to save the family's power source, leading to the investigation of Bruno's room.

After falling down a sand dune, Mirabel must climb a giant, winding staircase to enter a secret cave. However, it is only after doing this that she discovers a huge chasm is separating the stairs from the cave's entrance. This forces Mirabel to get a bit creative and build her own rope swing to get to the other side. Once she is in the cave and collects the shards that show Bruno's vision of the future, though, everything begins to crumble around her and the sand nearly pushes her back off the edge of the chasm.
