Even in autumn there will be no shortage of opportunities to explore the Castellana Caves (BA) with special visits Speleonight e SpeleofamilyNine events are scheduled between October and December with exclusive activities organised by the speleologists of the Puglia Caves Group, which complement the traditional guided tours of the karst site, one of Puglia's main tourist attractions.
Visit Speleonight, sensory experience in the underground that shows a different face of the karst site, is planned in the days October 14th and 28th and November 4th at 19:30 PM. The outward journey takes place in the dark, with only the lights on the helmets, in an intense silence where the patter of the water drops is amplified and the concretions are revealed in unique detail. Two highlights: the desert corridor traveled alone, a unique experience in the underground world, and the switching on of the lights in the White Cave, marking the illuminated return journey.
The appointment with Speleofamily, a multisensory tour for families and not only, which allows you to visit hidden sides of the caves and relive the excitement of the first explorers, discovering history and geology, is scheduled for November 6 at 5pm, and then again November 13, 20, and 27, and December 4 and 11 at 12:30 PM. Designed for children ages 4 and up, the Speleofamily tour offers an alternative route to the traditional tourist route. Led by professional speleologists, you'll explore using only the light of your helmet for an exciting adventure among the caves and concretions of the Castellana karst site.
To participate in Speleonight and Speleofamily, reservations are required by writing to segreteria@grottedicastellana.it within two days of the chosen date. On the website www.grottedicastellana.it More information about special visits is available.
