    It is a classic type of cavity with an articulated karst morphology. It opens a few meters above the stream bed and has a triangular entrance. It has galleries, tunnels, narrow passages, halls, shafts, a small lake and numerous ascending and descending branches with different gradients. The main ascending branch has always been known, but subsequent studies, explorations and deconstruction work by Alex "Pino" Beati, Francesco Bianchi-Demicheli, Nicola Oppizzi, Riki Pontiggia and Luigi Tantardini have brought to light a descending branch with considerable development and important tributaries. There are numerous forms of concretions. The galleries are crossed by water curtains and drains, while the lower sections are hydrologically active. The clay deposits are considerable in places.
