Equi Caves

Grotte di Equi

The Equi Caves are nestled among the rugged peaks and gorges of the Apuan Alps. These natural cavities tell the story of millions of years of geological history, shaped by the water that still flows within them today. The small village of Equi Terme, in the municipality of Fivizzano, welcomes visitors with a balance of nature and culture, offering trails that wind through forests and rocks, a museum dedicated to the geology and archaeology of the caves, and activities for everyone, from simple exploration to more adventurous caving. Here, nature reveals itself in ancient and fascinating forms, ready to surprise you at every turn.
