Description:

Equipped with a hard hat and torch, walk in footsteps that date back to Etruscan times of miners who dedicated their lives to the extraction of valuable metals from the Colline Metallifere (metal hills). Your guide will lead you through the Parco Archeominerario di Montieri, into the depths of the old caves and through the lunar terrain of red mountains known as Le Roste. Children especially enjoy the adventure of scrambling over the rocks and navigating their way through the darkness as everyone learns a little about the mining process, including some of the local legends.

If you have some experience with rock climbing, try descending into the depths of the vertical well with a rope and harness. No experience? Ask about a climbing orientation where we teach the basics about safety equipment and climbing techniques on our climbing wall.
