Two-Level Cave

Hiking during rainy days can be very slippery. It’s best to avoid walking above the caves, as there are several holes in the area.

Ruins of the First Castle and Gate to the Walls

Vitozza Parking Area – Città del Tufo Archaeological Park

Highlight • Parking

Free Parking - take some hiking boots in case you want to explore the area. Due to Mosquitos I would not recommend short pants in the summer time like early June July.

The path is absolutely beautiful and wildly romantic and we were now …

A quick morning run in 33 degrees, before it climbed to 37 degrees. It was great to run almost the entire way in the shade.

Nice little tour. Very exciting for children, as there are lots of small caves to explore that were inhabited until the 18th century. Many shady sections, so that you can do the tour well in the heat.
