Full description
Would you like to have an adventure in the Geo-Archeo-Adventure Park of the Equi Caves in Tuscany? This is a site of exceptional natural and geological interest and this experience will allow you to visit it and experience unique emotions.
Step into theshoes of a speleologist for an excursion to discover limestone formations of particular colours and shafts. Then experience the thrill of a 200-metre zipline flight over the Fagli stream and its 'potholes of the giants'. We are waiting for you!
What we will do
We will meet in Equi Terme, where we will meet the guide. After forming the group, we will have a briefing of about 30 minutes on the route and the use of the equipment, and we will be ready to set off.
At first we will approach some karstic caves modelled over millions of years by the action of water, which, penetrating the fractures in the limestone, has formed wells, tunnels and underground lakes.
From here, guided by the expert, we will begin the caving route (total length 350 m) between via ferratas and Tibetan bridges in the beautiful caves illuminated only by the light of our head torch. Along the approx. 2½-hour route, we will be able to admire large limestone formations, shafts and peculiar colourations.
At the end of the underground route, we will walk to the zipline area (about 100 metres from the caves). We will be able to experience the fantastic 200-metre zipline flight 20 metres above the karstic Fagli stream and admire the 'potholes of the giants', natural cavities filled with water and up to 4 metres deep.
The excursion will last a total of 3 hours and 30 minutes.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone from the age of 10. Minors may only participate if under the close supervision of an adult.
You must be at least 140 cm tall and weigh between 20 kg and 120 kg. No special skills are required, as long as you are in good physical and mental shape and do not have heart problems or other illnesses that could limit your abilities.
The activity is forbidden for pregnant women and strongly discouraged for those suffering from vertigo or claustrophobia.
Other information
The activity takes place all year round, weather permitting. There is in fact a karstic spring at the entrance to the cave which, in the event of flooding, makes the activity unfeasible.
The experience is confirmed with a minimum of 4 participants.
The temperature inside the cave is stable at around 10 degrees. It is therefore recommended to bring a sweatshirt or jacket, even during the summer period.
In the event of a thunderstorm or strong wind, the zip line route may be temporarily suspended.
