Route: 85 m, 3 minutes. Once in the built-up area of Cesi, from the small square by the pharmacy head EAST, following the SP22 downhill; after about 400 km park on the right in the small spaces between the low walls near a white house set above road level. Take the small pedestrian strip along the side of the house until you reach it; the cave is in the bathroom of the house and is entered through a window in the wall.

Entrance: entered through a window at the side of the bathroom wall; the cave was obstructed but two hours of digging cleared the entrance.

Entrance setting: urban, man-made, building.

Access: fence, private property; the cave opens inside the house of Mr. Pappalardo just outside the built-up area of Cesi.

Locality: Cesi, Gallarana, Gli Stalletti.
