ティチーノ周辺のおすすめ滝ハイキング＆ウォーキング

The Cascata della Froda waterfall, in Castelveccana, is a cascade of water about 100 meters high originating from Mount Cuvignone. It can be reached by a walk through the woods starting from the hamlet of Nasca. This pleasant trail, also suitable for families, passes streams, ancient trout ponds, and old mills.

The old stone bridge is located in the upper part of the two-tiered waterfall, separating the two stages. It blends beautifully into this rocky landscape. From it, the view extends down along the lower part to the base of the waterfall with its lake and the town of Faido and its surroundings. To the side and upwards, you can see the upper part of the waterfalls between the rocks. A wonderful experience!

When I was there in June 2025, I couldn't visit the interior because the entrance door was locked.

You can park your car at the end of the trail. There's room for 4-5 cars.

Beautiful refreshing waterfall

From this hill, on which stands the church of Santa Veronica, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Caldè and its coast.

Chiesa Maria Ss. Immacolata, Nasca,(Castelveccana) Church of Maria Santissima Immacolata - Nasca,(Castelveccana) XVI (construction of the entire property) The first mention of the sacred building in the hamlet of Nasca dates back to 1523 and coincides with the introduction of a weekly mass celebrated by the parish priest of the rectory of S. Vittore, to whose maintenance the inhabitants of the place committed themselves with a special instrument. It is not known what shapes and dimensions this primitive church had; it is certain that, being built in times of plague, it was originally named after S. Rocco. The church overlooks the central district of the hamlet of Nasca. The need to adapt to an already established urban layout led to the anomalous exposure of the altar, which was oriented to the north. In short, the desire to adapt to criteria of accessibility and urban decency prevailed. The beautiful façade, completed in the mid-18th century and characterized by large light backgrounds on which pilasters and darker stone frames stand out, contributed to this last aspect by remaining aesthetically still indebted to the happy formulas of the 17th century, widespread in the middle Verbano area. The church extends over a large and single-aisled nave, ending in a polygonal apse of equal width. The nave is divided into three bays, each covered by a "clawed" barrel vault. In the central bay there are two chapels, one on each side. The perception of the airy 18th century plan is partially spoiled by a lively pictorial decoration, created during an intervention in the first decades after the Second World War. To the left of the entrance is the niche of the baptistery. In the choir on the counterfaçade is the organ, an instrument built by a still anonymous workshop and installed at the beginning of the twentieth century. The bell tower rises on the east side, near the presbytery.
