Subjects : The Frasassi Caves offer one of the most fascinating and grandiose underground routes in Italy, a complete underground ecosystem where you can admire beautiful crystallized ponds and huge cavities and clusters of millenarian limestone formations from More disparate forms. With the exception of the Ancona Abyss, the entrance hall of the caves, you can take pictures as long as you do not get away from your guided group.

Recommended equipment : For the tourist route lasting about an hour it is possible to bring with it all the necessary needed to be able to take photos inside the caves, then camera, backpack brings lenses and tripods (fundamental latter). For those who want to tackle speleological paths, lasting about two, three hours and much more challenging, it is allowed to carry with you only a camera that is not too cumbersome.

Best months : All year round.
