Grotte di Stiffe

Abruzzo

Unlike most show caves, Stiffe is an active hydrological system: an underground river carved these galleries and still roars through them, especially after heavy rain, forming a spectacular subterranean cascade near the entrance. Walkways follow the water through chambers lined with slender stalactites.
