A short section of the Via Cava in Pitigliano, central Italy. The Vie Cave, also called Tagliate, are ancient Etruscan roadways dug into the tuffaceous rock. Walking in these archaeological areas, between tufa walls even more than twenty metres high, allows you to immerse yourself in very suggestive natural environments, with a magical atmosphere. These are very interesting places from both a historical and a naturalistic point of view. The Vie Cave di Pitigliano are included in the Archaeological Park of the Città del Tufo.
