The Masino torrent is the true protagonist of the Masino valley, not only because it runs through it along its entire length, but also because it is rich in thermal waters, which flow from a spring at 1,170 meters above sea level. It is not uncommon to see people soaking in the numerous pools that form along the stream.

Immediately after the cycle path that connects San Martino with Filorera, a beautiful and ancient bridge.
