    The Via Cava di Fratenuti is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular excavated Etruscan cave roads, characterized by walls up to twenty meters high adorned with engravings and inscriptions dating back to both the Etruscan and medieval times.

    Thanks to the particular temperature range of this deep corridor carved into the rock, a special microclimate has developed which favors the growth of a vast variety of ferns, mosses and lichens. It is a place of solitary and primitive beauty, where time seems to have stopped.

      Here the path of the Etruscans always goes slightly upwards

        Beautiful section carved out of the tuff more than 2000 years ago by the Etruscans
