The wild nature of the place and the difficulty of the path to reach it make this historical site even more fascinating!

Cavity located at the foot of Mount Albino, formed by 3 communicating caves, the main one of which is known as Grotta di Annibale, while the other two are respectively called Grotta dei Pipistrelli and Grotta Oscura, the latter accessible with a helmet and torch. It is local belief that the Carthaginian commander Hannibal took refuge here, together with his army, during the siege of Nuceria in 216 BC.
