カルドナッツォの峡谷・トップ9

Construction site presence at the start and end of the route in July 2025

the sinkhole is quite impressive and quite intimidating

The gorge of the river Persona which cuts through the passage between Valsugana and Valle dell'Adige is very suggestive in some places.

It is worth taking a guided tour of the deep canyon carved by the waters of the Fersina torrent. Excellent destination for a family walk coming down from Povo or Cognola.

Here, from the Roman bridge you can observe the deep gorge dug over the centuries by the waters of the Fersina torrent

A spectacular waterfall of considerable height, created by the stream of the same name, which flows into the Astico River just downstream. From what I can find online, "Pissavàca" (also spelled "Pissavacca" and "Pisciavacca") is a fairly common place name in the Triveneto region. The left bank of the Astico Valley is dotted with valleys of varying width, carved by streams that descend from the Luserna karst plateau and cut across its steep southern slope, creating spectacular rapids, gorges, and whirlpools. The presence or absence of water depends on rainfall or snowfall: to find a good flow of water, visit on days after rain.

The diameter and depth of the chasm are impressive. It's scary. I advise caution in the cold months (and not only) as there is ice everywhere and the area becomes a skating rink, although there are protective barriers. I speak from lived experience....

We were advised not to drive here, which I now regret🙈
