Beautiful valley with beautiful waterfalls

The Torrente Mello is the main watercourse that crosses the Val di Mello, one of the most suggestive valleys of Valtellina. This torrent originates from Monte Disgrazia and flows along the entire valley, fed by numerous streams and natural springs from the surrounding mountains. The Torrente Mello is characterized by crystalline waters that flow between the imposing granite rocks and the lush vegetation, creating natural scenery of rare beauty. Along its course, the torrent feeds several lakes, such as the Laghetto del Qualido, and also feeds numerous waterfalls and pools, which make the valley even more fascinating and appreciated by hikers. The path of the Torrente Mello is clearly visible along the paths that start from the village of San Martino, which is the main starting point for exploring the valley. The path that follows the course of the torrent allows you to enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding nature and access places of great naturalistic interest, making it an ideal destination for lovers of trekking and photography.

Reserve with paid car access (ticket to be purchased in San Martino)

A lateral valley of Val Masino and part of the municipality of the same name, Val di Mello has a characteristic watercourse that here, near the locality of San Martino, is truly beautiful to see. From time to time it widens its bed, forming small lake basins.

I recommend visiting in the month of October with all the colors of autumn, it is truly a destination for the foliage.

I've been there and the colors reflected in the lake were fantastic. To reach it, an ultra-easy flat walk.

An enchanted valley, I recommend taking the tour that goes from one side of the river to the other

The Pian di Spagna Nature Reserve is a beautiful flat area, a destination for many migratory birds. It is a Site of Community Importance (Sic) which is part of the European Ecological Network "Natura 2000", created to include the complex of places characterized by the presence of both animal and plant habitats and species of community interest.
