The Spider's Cave 1, so called because of the presence of a small colony of spiders all of the same species. It is a cave on the lavas of 1865. The entrance to the cavity is a bit low and you can enter without too many problems, as soon as you enter you find yourself in a small room with a maximum height of 2 m and then progressively lowers until it closes. On the left instead there are the presence of 2 beautiful Rotoli (similar to the famous Rotoli cave) these lead to the entrance of a typical lava tube that will gradually close after about 4/5 m. Note the presence of bat guano and some young dwarf birch shrubs in the immediate vicinity of the cavity.
