Description

The famous Scala del Capriolo (Roe Stairs) allows you to access the entrance of the Grotta di Nettuno (Neptune Caves) from the Capo Caccia lookout. In Catalan, it is called “Escala del Cabirol” and consists of 654 steps. It winds through very suggestive landscapes along the west side of the Capo Caccia bastion. The landscape is unique and incredibly beautiful and is worth the climb back up again after visiting the cave.

Car park.
