The Perino Waterfalls trail is one of the most evocative routes in the province of Piacenza.
Along the path there is the Mulino di Riè, a characteristic rural architecture, which testifies to one of the ancient local activities: along the Perino, in fact, once upon a time there were numerous mills, whose blades were driven by the flow of water channeled into specific current shunts.
It is precisely at this point that the most evocative part of the valley begins, where the highly stratified rock presents a dozen jumps, which the stream overcomes, forming as many natural waterfalls.
They are waterfalls of different heights, the highest of which reaches 17 metres, creating lakes or, in some cases, small rapids.
Very suggestive in the winter if they freeze.
