Hiking
The Partisans' Cave, in Val Taleggio, is a cave semi-hidden among boulders and vegetation; to access it it is necessary to wade through a small stream fed by the water which, descending from above, generates a wonderful waterfall inside the cave.
During the spring of 1945, partisans Giulio Bellaviti from Pizzino and Virgilio Arnoldi from Sottochiesa were killed here by Nazi-fascist forces.
To remember this massacre, the cave has since taken the name "Cave of the Partisans".
