Cavagrande del Cassibile excursion
A few kilometers from Syracuse, lies the beautiful Cava with stunning natural lakes, called “Cavagrande del Cassibile”
The “Cava” is the term used to indicate the valli carsiche degli Iblei.
The Cavagrande del Cassibile quarry is one of the most important in the Iblei because of its size. The river, Cassibile, in correspondence of some drops, creates real natural pools particularly beautiful for the colors that radiate.
In this excursion we will discover the world of the Iblei, their fauna and flora and we will descend into the quarry to appreciate the natural beauty. We will stop at the most important “pool” where, if the weather is good, we can also take a swim. We will visit the petrified woods that characterize the valley and then return by car.
The excursion begins with the meeting at 9:00 a.m., at the meeting point agreed at the time of booking. After the ritual presentations will be made a briefing on the route, an overview of the main points of interest, a check on clothing and equipment and registration with the association that allows insurance coverage.
