Description

Morphology

The entrance is a natural fissure; descending a small drop, one enters the internal route. Trend: horizontal.

Progression

From the narrow passage one descends a small drop and enters the section cleared over the years by the Gruppo Speleologico Todi. Traversability: easy; recommended period: all year.

Other details

The first clearing operations took place in the years 1979-1980 with the collaboration of two "clearing" speleologists from Sarteano. From the cavity, hence the name, a strong draft of air blows, channeled into small conduits.

History

The place name, already present in IGM cartography, has always been known to the local inhabitants. The path was in fact frequented because it allowed one to reach the sanctuary of the Pasquarella.
