behind the small monument dedicated to the old border there is a place called IL GORGO it is an enchanting place with waterfalls and turquoise water

I recommend approaching via the equipped path. The waterfall practically coincides with the source.

A foaming and thunderous waterfall cascades from the spring known as 'Gorgo Santo' (which can be visited a little further along, climbing the trail —> see related highlight). The small bridge actually spans two waterfalls, one upstream and one downstream. I recommend descending to the paved road below, on the border between the hamlets of Scalzeri and Longhi, for a spectacular view of the stream cascading through a series of rapid drops before flowing into the Astico River. I also recommend visiting this site after days of rain or when the snow has melted in the mountains, to see the water swollen and rushing!

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

The Rio Mous waterfalls are a series of cascades between the rocks and lush vegetation of the dense Gon Forest, along the picturesque trail connecting Folgaria to Guardia. The stream flows from Serrada to join the Rio Cavallo (Rosspach in Cimbrian). You cross a beautiful, ancient stone arch bridge, which can only be appreciated by venturing off-trail. Like any torrential waterfall, it's best seen after days of rain, to experience the full force of the water rather than the meagerness of a trickle.

Commemorative stone marking the former border between the Kingdom of Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire until the end of World War I. The border between the two states in the upper Astico Valley had a curious layout: from the hamlet of Busatti, upstream, to the village of Casotto, downstream, the territory to the left of the river was Austrian, while that to the right was Italian. Each citizen had its own route to travel this stretch of the valley, without having to cross the border: the Austrians had the current internal road, while the Italians had the current and parallel state road 350, which connects the Vicenza area to Trentino. At this point, just outside Casotto, the Torra stream marked the demarcation between the two states; the Braidi Bridge, guarded by a garrison, was an important passage for goods and people. With Italy's victory and the annexation of the unredeemed lands, it became the border between Trentino and Veneto. But in 1929, against the will of the inhabitants, a fascist decree imposed that Pedemonte and Casotto pass from the Province of Trento to that of Vicenza: the border between the two regions was moved further upstream, above the village of Lastebasse. An old photo illustrates a moment of conviviality and respect between Austrian customs officers and Italian Carabinieri, sitting at the same table. The original memorial stone is located in the Valdastico cemetery. https://www.freeforumzone.com/mobile/d/11171728/Valle-dell-Astico-e-le-due-strade-sul-confine-parallelo/discussione.aspx

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
