In the heart of Carbonia, the Grotta dei Fiori is a 12-hectare oasis of history and nature. The park boasts 50 caves and traces of mining archaeology, such as barite quarries and furnaces. Ideal for a break, it offers areas with tables, chairs, barbecues, restrooms, and water. Between hiking trails and the devotion to the Grotta della Madonna del Coraggio, the site welcomes visitors with a farm, hammocks, and unique views. Carefully managed, it is open 24/7 with a free donation to tourists, pilgrims, and groups.
