Forre del Titerno, Canyon in Benevento Province, Italy.

The Forre del Titerno consists of deep canyons carved into rock formations, reaching depths of 30 meters along the Titerno River between Cerreto Sannita and Cusano Mutri.

The name Titerno originates from the Greek word 'tereo', meaning to wear down or consume, reflecting the natural erosion process that formed these canyons over millennia.

The canyon system includes several named caves, including the Witches Cave, Fairies Cave, and Bandits Cave, each connected to regional folklore and traditions.

Visitors need hiking shoes, cameras, and flashlights to explore the natural paths, while guided tours are mandatory for accessing the more challenging sections of the canyon.

The Bandits Cave features a narrow entrance leading to multiple chambers with limestone formations, culminating in a cathedral-like space measuring 20 meters in height.
