pressed it immediately: these environments are not comparable to those of the extraordinary abandoned mine, but with the right perspective and good lighting in these old quarries can appreciate some views.
We're talking about the underground caves of Valdorbia: the number of open access in close proximity of the establishment Motette.

marly material that was extracted was used for concrete production: the trend is still easily identifiable in a few meters thick layer a trend that has tilt.
All the caves are so like long straight corridors with pitched roofs. Sometimes a descendery, by way of multi-junction, allows to link two adjacent levels.
In these environments is critical to remember that the gaps are not created by nature over thousands of years, but they're dug by man in a relatively short period, therefore, are unstable and unsafe. Along all tunnels Valdorbia fact, there is evidence of collapse more or less recent and props made of wood in the past to strengthen the structures today did not look at all reassuring.
final note: The area is famous for its Valdorbia outcrops and it is very easy to find the ammonniti.
EXTREME CAUTION DURING THE VISIT AND ESPECIALLY DO NOT PUT THE OLD LEGS!
