The Pagani cave is a beautiful corner of nature from which it is possible to admire a breathtaking panorama. In winter it is possible to find stalactites and stalagmites inside the cave, even large ones, which make the place truly evocative and fascinating. The path to reach the cave is physically demanding. From a technical point of view there are no difficulties, but in the presence of snow what was said for the Savina chapel applies, i.e. pay attention to the snow discharges coming from the wall of the Presolana massif.
