Grotte di Pertosa-Auletta
Campania
An underground river still flows through part of this cave system, and the tour begins with a short boat ride across it before continuing on foot past huge stalactite formations and evidence of Bronze Age use. Bats roost in the deeper chambers, and the surrounding Alburni limestone hills hold many more unexplored caves.
