Grotta Urlante

Audio Description

Did you know that the British newspaper Financial Times listed this place among the most spectacular river landscapes in Europe? And how could we disagree. It truly is an unspoiled paradise: just look at the rocks, the waterfalls, and the two natural pools. In fact, this is a kind of “giant’s kettle,” a rocky basin carved out by the water, whose shape resembles enormous pots—where, according to popular imagination, giants once cooked their meals. This giant’s kettle opens into a cliff of layered rock that supports the new bridge. But why is it called the Grotta Urlante (Howling Cave)? Because of the noise produced by the water, amplified by the natural acoustics of the place. Unfortunately, you can no longer access it due to safety concerns, and swimming in its crystal-clear waters is no longer allowed. But if you really feel like taking a dip, you can follow the course of the Rabbi River and find other pools along the way. Just a few hundred meters from here you will come across both the Sega waterfall and the smaller Seghina waterfall.
