Since it was breading season, we were not allowed in the 'bat' and as a result had to enter (and leave) the through the exit which was quite a climb. The itself is not very big but beautiful, narrow at some points and really gives you a feeling of adventure. The guide Claudio was able to give some explanation in English and did a great job. The only downside was -again- the breeding season, so we couldn't see the bats... - suitable for kids above 7 - bring a jacket, shorts are ok. - cash only - your shoes will get dirty :-) the is 400m long and is sculpted by a stream running through a chalky cliff. From the valley, along the stream, you can walk through tunnels with walls shaped by water, encountering the typical calcareous concretions of chalky caves, until you reach the fossil environments. One of the characteristics of this is the presence of large colonies of bats, over 8,000 individuals of seven different species A beautiful that houses a large colony of bats, unfortunately it was not the mating season so we saw only one small sleppy bat 🦇. The guide was amazing...in the hart of the we turned of the flashlights and for a minute we stayed in total darkness and total silence...wonderful Definitely worth visiting. You won't be able to see the bat nursery at the end of the cave--with 6000 females--but you will hear them. It's deep in the forest, kids loved adventuring through narrow passages and learn about the history and the creatures that live in the darkness of the caves Very beautiful and rare gypsum caves—it seems that only 10% in the world are of this type. The guide was very friendly and helpful. Everything worked out just finde even though we arrived relatively spontaneous. Our tour guide was very kind and the little walk through the was quite exciting, we could even see a few bats :) This is a great experience for a fun day out with knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides (mostly in Italian) It is not too taxing to feel like hard work, but enough to be an adventure (if you can do the 200 stairs!) and great for all the family (we took our baby in a carrier!) It was a bonus to switch off all the torches to be in the dark and see some bats flying too!
