As for the cave of Poggio La Caccia Superiore, it is a cavity of modest dimensions, which develops on a single hypogeal environment quite large, which is accessed by a short canal. The cave in question is not indicated on the maps, but it is certainly known by the shepherds of the area and used as a shelter in times past. It was not possible to find the slang name used in the past, therefore it was preferred to identify it with the toponym of the homonymous locality. Not far away is the Cave of Poggio La Caccia Superiore and a visit, associated with this, can justify the visit.
