Top 7 Caves 마세라타

Avoid this destination. The trail is steep, long, and dangerous, and beyond the river it's even impassable!

Simple circular trail of about 2 km to discover the Vurgacci. The Vurgacci are the caves and stone sculptures that characterize this trail that develops in the most suggestive stretch of the Gola di Pioraco along the course of the Potenza River.

One of the most beautiful sacred places in the Marche. An abbey nestled in the rocks near the Grotta d'Eustachio. The mastery of sculpting the stone is still clearly visible. How much hidden beauty! Absolutely to be restored and preserved. But also in its current state to be admired and with the imagination to be transported to the times of its glory.

I recommend not doing the whole route but going back after reaching Grotta dei Frati. In fact, going down further, you reach the river and to continue you literally have to walk into it. There is no path on the side. In addition, after crossing the river and taking the path again, the road is impassable due to a landslide since 2022. Nice route but the circular tour is no longer possible.

From Grotta dei Frati go back and do not continue the path towards the river. Dangerous path and also closed by an ordinance of 2022 due to subsidence of the land. The path literally passes inside the river (in reality a real path no longer exists) and once you have resumed the marked path, you will find yourself in front of a sign prohibiting access to pedestrians due to danger.

The last stretch to reach the cave is very steep and insidious, I absolutely recommend suitable shoes and don't disdain poles to keep your balance. Once reached, it pays off the effort made to get there. As of today, the next stretch is off-limits, so you can only go back uphill, facing the particularly challenging stretch.

Very suggestive.
