Final waterfall

you'll get a bit wet, but it's ok, the view is splendid ;)

Brusimpiano, a small pearl on Lake Lugano, is the northernmost municipality of Valceresio. Its history and economy have always been linked, in addition to the border, to the lake; however, in the past, the village was also active in other sectors, such as mining and cultivation. In this, the Trallo river, which divides the village in half, played a key role. Born from the union of two branches, the Reporiora ditch and the Valganasca ditch, along its course until the end of the nineteenth century five mills were active, of which the most characteristic was located at the beginning of Val Musagra, where the fish farm currently stands.

Following the course of the Trallo it is therefore possible to retrace a part of the history of Brusimpiano: some remains of the mills are still visible. The area is also characteristic from a mineralogical and fossiliferous point of view, as the abandoned mine shows. The arrival point is a suggestive waterfall of clear water that falls from a height of about ten meters into a pool dug into the rock, like in a glass of champagne, forming foam, dust and rainbows. From there the Trallo begins its course, silent and slow, descending in leaps into the narrow gorge of the valley. Source: www.visitbrusimpiano.com

The "Al Maglio" waterfall is located on bike trail no. 355, right next to the old "Maglio del Malcantone" (Hammersmith Museum). Both are well worth seeing.

The gorges of the Gaggiolo Torrent cut the upper part of the Meride Limestone called Kalkschieferzone, composed of finely stratified limestones and marl, forming a spectacular waterfall

The panoramic terrace of Val Mara is immersed in the woods, just above the Gaggiolo stream, in one of the most evocative panoramic points of Monte San Giorgio.

The gorges of the Gaggiolo Torrent cut the upper part of the Meride Limestone called Kalkschieferzone, composed of finely stratified limestones and marl. Here, in numerous excavation campaigns starting in 1936, the World Heritage site's most recent vertebrate fossils were discovered. The panoramic terrace of Val Mara offers a glimpse of marine deposits and fossils dating back to the Middle Triassic, 239 million years ago. The contents, offered in Italian, German and English, include educational panels, binoculars, casts and models of fossils, stone walls and reconstructions of the Middle Triassic environment, when Val Mara was a subtropical marine basin.
