Cesare Battisti Cave

Special Area of Conservation (SAC)

It is one of the most interesting in the region due to the presence of biogenic flows and the complex air circulation in the various galleries. It contains very old concretions (over 1 million years old) and thick fossil concretional flows.
The habitat is also complex: it offers shelter to numerous species of birds, arachnids, etc.

Description

The cave opens at 1880 metres above sea level, in a grey limestone formation. It is a branched complex, with seven entrances located at different heights, causing a particular air circulation, with lower humidity and temperatures. There is very little actual water circulation. Active concretions are rare.
