Molera Quarries

Highlight • Structure

Former quarry along the Lanza. The narrow entrances do not suggest the expanse in the interior, with large vaulted rooms connected by small passages and reflected in geometric perspective games …

Very pleasant, simple and quiet walk. Suitable for children but not for strollers, because the last stretch includes an ups and downs in the woods. The historical-cultural aspect of the molerà quarries, the history of the Mulino del Trotto and the railway are also very interesting.
