The reserve, on the solitary side of the middle Valtellina in an area between 700 and 800 meters above sea level in the "Il Prato" area, is made up of a small moraine deposit with debris of different sizes. Here the phenomenon of the "Earth Pyramids" manifests itself, which arise from the erosive action exerted by rainwater which, as it falls, erodes and crumbles the land made up of debris, leaving only the compact boulders intact.
