Speleo Experience – Monte Corchia
After the introductions, we put on the overalls, harness and the rest of the equipment. By path in 20 minutes we will arrive at the entrance to the cave. Briefing on safety, on the activity and off we go!
The air temperature between 8 and 10 degrees Celsius. The entrance, a natural opening, is a bit narrow and sloping. Shortly after we will arrive at the first abseil on the rope, then a second of about 20 meters and then a third. From here, downclimbing towards the footbridges of the tourist route, which we will cover for 5 minutes, to then leave them behind us, deviating towards the snow tunnels ……… the adventure, of course, continues, ask for more info!
