    Loop trail leading from Biacis, hamlet of Pulfero, to the Cave-Church of San Giovanni d'Antro: a very attractive itinerary, rich in historical evidence and geological singularities.

    Along the route, suggestive panoramic points are reached, easily accessible both by experienced hikers and by those who want to learn about the geological process that led to the formation of these landscapes, or even by those who, intrigued by such beauties, simply want to enjoy them for tourist purposes.

    There are three rest stops along the trail: two in the first section up to St. John 's and one between St. John's and Biacis with a stone bench and mulched walking surface.

    The starting and finishing point is in the Biacis area in which the Ahrensperg Castle, (Eagle Castle) is located, where you can also park your car.
