Situation

From the SS448 that runs alongside Lago di Corbara, take the road for Acqualoreto and continue for Morre towards Civitella del Lago along the SP34. After about 5.25 km leave the vehicle in the clearing on the left near a pronounced ditch, recently cleared of woodland (March 2026). For those coming from Civitella del Lago the parking area is about 250 m after the junction for Morre (Località Elce Bello). Proceed on foot up the ditch keeping to the right bank for about 300 m where, a few tens of metres from the streambed, the pronounced entrance is encountered.

Route information: there is no beaten path; scrub or bosco (woodland); steep slope. Route: 15 min, 300 m on foot.

Entrance: a pit opening in the ground among the scrub, about 3x3 metres in diameter, fenced with barbed wire. Entrance setting: natural, rural. Access: open access, fence; as of 13/03/2026 the surrounding bosco (woodland) has been cut, it is easily located; beware of trunks and cutting debris on the ground that make progression uphill and downhill difficult.

Locality: Civitella del Lago, Monte Pozzo Callarano.
