Tips

Numerous streams descend from the Altopiano delle Montagnole, creating lively waterfalls in secluded valleys.
The Sette Fontane waterfall, rather than a vertical waterfall, is a sloping section of the stream that descends between the rocks: to be visited in post-rain periods, to find it impetuous and swollen. Nearby, continuing along the path to the left, you come to another small intake structure that cuts the Lora stream.

In the 1920s, all this wealth of water was exploited by the Lanificio Marzotto to produce electricity, with a system of waterworks that are still functioning: three small concrete dams, corresponding to as many springs (Lora, Sette Fontane and Lambre), convey the water into the Obante basin below (capacity 800 cubic meters), next to the road that goes up to the Rifugio Battisti; from there, via a forced conduit, it reaches the Gazza Power Plant, further downstream, to generate hydroelectric energy (175 l/s, 2,500 MWh).

The waterfalls and the structures cross each other along the Sentiero delle Cascate, a simple family-sized ring, immersed in the woods, which starts from Malga Lora or Vasca Obante and goes up to Rifugio Battisti, and then descends again.

OK, it didn't look quite as magnificent in September, but it was definitely worth seeing.
