The cavity opens along the path that runs alongside the Canaletta dei Cocchi dei Campacci; to reach the cliff, however, one must cross a fence and a closed gate. The entrance is a wide entrance on a vertical diaclase, partially covered by nets and broken-down gates, in a natural, slope and anthropized setting, with gate and fence. Location: Marmore, Canaletta dei Cocchi. The route crosses scrub or bushland and is passable on footpath, on steep terrain, with dangerous access.
