Onferno Caves

To few kilometers from the crowded coast romagnola, in Valconca, the Natural Reserve of Onferno lays, with its karstic caves.
This is the ideal place to feel pervaded by the revitalizing strength of nature.

Entry
The entry is found in the ancient Parish of Saint Dove, one of the most ancient of the Diocese in Rimini, destroyed during the second world war, to whose inside they are also found the Center Visits and the Naturalistic Museum Multimediale, to know Onferno having a good time himself/herself/itself.
The visit is driven from personal of the Cooperative that, before the departure, it furnishes helmet and torch to the visitors.
It is to wear well comfortable shoes with good fund since damp can make also the slippery camminamento and heavy plush or k-way in the summer. The temperature wanders, in fact, always around the 12/14 degrees.

Inside of the caves
Along the run, that part from an altitude of 290 meters to go down in depth 70 of it, can explore the underground system of the Caves of Onferno. You will admire suggestive environments, smooth ceilings and smoothed, the fall of limestone, the fireplace with the "pearls of cave" and the greatest mammellonis of Europe: gigantic heaps of crystals on the ceiling of the room Quarina.
The ground is partly paved, partly on natural ground and it is therefore necessary to stir with caution. They cross canyon, salt of collapse and narrow passages, but the presence of an inferior entry and a superior exit favours a good ventilation.
[Hollow]

Compotes of chalky rock, are originated from the erosive action of the water of infiltration on layers of ground of different compactness, permeability and solubility. You treats, therefore, of morphology caves carsica, with an underground course of water and a series of multilevel hollow connected among them with burrows, narrow passages and cracks.

The water, flowing on the surface of the hollow that it same you/he/she has formed, in some points you/he/she has created some concretions of salts of kick from the eccentric form.

The chirotteris
The cave is little illuminated, since it entertains a precious colony of bats composed by around 4000 samples. Six kinds, some of notable value scientific because considered in danger of extinction. During the summer them you/he/she can be perceived busy in the reproduction and in the first flight of the small ones. A good occasion for a "confrontation" with the chirotteris that undo you some common places: of bugs be fed and not of blood!
