The Buca del Terremoto, created by the 1799 earthquake between Monte di Colleluce and Monte San Pacifico, is an enormous almost circular chasm, about 50 meters wide and 20 meters deep, presumably caused by the collapse of an underground cave. It is an imposing and truly unique place. It is possible to go all the way down, although it can be a bit dangerous.
