The Meri del Soratte are wells (three in total) that are connected to each other. Already known in the times of Pliny the Elder, these wells, according to him, are the gateway to the Kingdom of the Underworld.

The meri are very deep karst cavities. Easy path to follow. Start from the large Sant'Oreste car park, the one below the road. There are three of them, all close together. On the same path, a little further on, there is the church in the cave of Santa Romana, a beautiful place that deserves to be visited.
