The Caves of Borgio Verezzi are a spectacle of nature. The visit route goes into the heart of the mountain for about 800 meters and passes through large rooms adorned with majestic stalactites and stalagmites. This place was officially discovered in 1933, even though the locals already knew of its existence. For years it was a sarcophagus of history: bone fragments and other elements belonging to animal species that existed around 750,000 years ago were found here.

Hiking

The stalactite cave is well worth seeing. A nice hike from Finale Ligure / Finalborgo over the mountain is nice. On the way you also pass through the picturesque town of Verezzi. Last morning tour of the grotto at 11:30 a.m. Then it doesn't continue until after the lunch break at 3:30 p.m.
