The Earth Pyramids of San Genesio are located in the hamlet of Montoppio. This is also where the source of the Rio Margherita originates, which flows down towards the Adige Valley to Settequerce. These pyramids were formed over the centuries through the erosion of the red clay soil in a landslide area, and their stability is protected from erosion by the rocks on the summit.
