    Pale stands on a travertine counter shaped by the calcium-rich waters of the Menotre River.
    This mineral, depositing over millennia, has given rise to spectacular caves, including the Abbadessa Caves, so called since the 17th century.
    There are other caves in the area, many of them partially unexplored; the Sasso di Pale and its underground treasures are a privileged destination for speleology enthusiasts.

    Hiking

    The Abbadessa Caves in Pale are an interesting karst phenomenon, created mainly by the waters of the Menotre River.
    These can be found in the underground system created by the waters of the Menotre River, whose precipitation in the underground caves has led to the numerous stalactites and stalagmites.
    Please note that the caves can currently only be visited on Saturdays and Sundays under expert guidance. Duration approx. 30 minutes, price 6 euros (as of 2024).
