Bussento Caves, Protected natural oasis in Morigerati, Italy.

The Bussento Caves feature a stone path leading through a canyon where the river emerges from underground passages into rapids and waterfalls.

The caves area includes an 18th-century mill that utilized the river's force to grind flour for the local community.

The World Wildlife Fund manages this 607-hectare natural reserve, promoting environmental education and conservation of native species.

Visitors can access the caves through guided tours that start from Morigerati's center and follow a downhill stone path to the river entrance.

The Bussento River displays notable karst formations, disappearing underground at Caselle in Pittari before resurfacing within these caves after 7 kilometers.
