The "Treasures" of Cava Volpe (RG)
December 08, 2019
The woodland of the Iblei plateau forest park holds within Cava Volpe wonders of a distant time that human hands have tried to alter, yet they remain unchanged and magical to this day. The primitive dwellings, treasures of the Iblei, are a living testament to the passage of ancient peoples through these lands. Today's walk will take us through the "hypogea" found within this canyon, which remain one-of-a-kind due to their unique characteristics.
Afterwards, a loop trail through this lush canyon will treat us to the scents and colors that only autumn can release. This canyon remains one of the most rugged, where nature has managed to preserve and contain its natural beauty.
