A unique spectacle in the world: the Frasassi Caves in Genga

Grotte di Frasassi - A unique spectacle in the world: this is how the Frasassi Caves, which are located within the municipal area of Genga, are defined in the tourist and information brochures. The Frasassi Caves are an underground complex of great beauty, which winds for 3 kilometers. A first part, about a kilometer and a half, is open to the public with very easy and usable routes.

The second part, on the other hand, is only accessible with speleo-adventure trails at two levels of difficulty. To imagine the grandeur of the caves, just think that the Milan Cathedral could easily enter the first room. Here there are stalagmites up to 20 meters high, not surprisingly called the Giants. Another type of path that can be tackled in the Frasassi Caves is the photo tour. The tourist is invited to take pictures with his mobile phone (strictly without flash) and then share his experience on social networks. The caves are also a vehicle for food and wine promotion, especially the Verdicchio di Jesi and Matelica wines, which are produced in this area.
