The caves have a length of over 1 000 meters, 6 km not yet fully explored and partially (700 mt) open to the public. They constitute an active resurgence, ie they have been produced by the presence of an underground river that comes out on the surface, a case almost unique in Italy. The environment maintains a temperature of just 10 ° C, constant throughout the year. The cavities have been modeled in geological times by infiltrations, erosion and corrosion of the water coming from the upper part of the mountains above located in the Rocche plateau and, more specifically, from the system of sinkholes present between Terranera and Rocca di Cambio, to a altitude of 1. 253 compared to the 600 mt altitudine of the Cave main entrance.
