ガリオの峡谷・トップ15

A simply wonderful place, easy to reach from the Carpanè-Valstagna station, following a well-marked path along the Brenta River. The staff was equally fantastic, allowing us to follow the cave tour in both Italian and English (part of my group didn't speak Italian). I recommend going in spring; it's cooler and there's usually less traffic, so you can enjoy it all better. ;)

Super labyrinth, with all the indications that goes from narrow passages to some rocks where you have to climb, be careful that sometimes you also have to jump between the rocks and below there is a nice jump. Highly recommended 😍🤩

Very suggestive place with beautiful passages between the rocks and beautiful panoramic views

Very small rock labyrinth, but nice to do, be careful in winter that between fallen trees that do not allow passage and the frozen snow you risk getting hurt.

Natural chasm that nature is now recovering, worth seeing if you pass through the area

The Oliero caves are a complex of caverns located on the slopes of the Sette Comuni plateau, near the hamlet of Oliero (municipality of Valbrenta). Much of the water that penetrates through the plateau above flows from the caves, a classic example of karst phenomena. There are four caves currently open to the public: Covol dei Veci and Covol dei Siori from which the Oliero river flows; while the two upper ones, Covol dei Assassini and Covol dee Soree, are now dry. To visit the caves it is necessary to have a ticket and entry is allowed only with a guide. In the park of the caves it is also possible to visit the museum of speleology and karst phenomena and relax at the bike grill bar.

The "Sanctuary of the Madonna del Caravaggio al Buso" is so named because it is dedicated to the Madonna del Caravaggio (not the painter, but the town in the province of Bergamo where the Virgin appeared in 1432); and because it is built above a high natural gorge (the "Buso Vecio")... however, it is commonly referred to as "the Madonna del Buso." What is striking about this humble little temple and its bell tower is their secluded and solitary location, hidden and almost forgotten: they emerge unexpectedly at the bottom of the narrow and shady Val Frenzèla, immersed in coniferous forests, along the old and obsolete road connecting Gallio and Stoccareddo, used until the construction of the more convenient and faster metal overpass at the end of the 20th century, which now overlooks the shrine at a height of 70 meters! History. Here, in 1830, Fra Giovanni Battista Casera, a Franciscan hermit, returning from one of his many pilgrimages, found himself stranded by a severe spring storm and the resulting "brentana" (river flood), which prevented him from crossing the ravine. He therefore sought shelter among these rocks. As an act of faith for having escaped danger, in accordance with his own wishes, the bridge connecting the two banks and the chapel were built in the years immediately following, serving as a rest stop for travelers and a place of worship. He himself spent the rest of his days as a hermit in that building. The site quickly became a pilgrimage destination. It was destroyed by bombing during World War I and rebuilt in 1927. https://www.vaticano.com/turismo/scheda_1251_il-santuario-del-buso.html

The Brustolà Labyrinth (or Monte Fiaretta Labyrinth), near the Campomuletto Refuge, is the little brother of the much more famous Castelloni di San Marco: less well-known, more hidden and intimate, wilder and more adventurous; equally, and perhaps more, evocative precisely because of its "secrecy." A hidden gem! It is a natural stronghold of karst rocks that conceals towering canyons, narrow passages, and vertical walls that seem to crush you and fall upon you. Crossing the hidden and narrow entrance, protected by an impenetrable stone wall, you feel like you're entering a secluded and exclusive world. It is not signposted, and the entrance is remote and extremely narrow. Inside, the path is marked with blue dots painted on the rocks; beware of deep crevasses in the ground. EE.
