Waterfalls

Among the green of our province there are several marvellous waterfalls.

(As these are specific rock conformations, great care must be taken)

It is located about 30 meters just below the village where the Margorabbia river flows out from the caves of the Cunardo ravine to reach the Valtravaglia valley. At the bottom of the waterfall there is a small lake of crystal-clear water which is completely surrounded by nature.
