stone bridge built between 1820 and 1822, called "ul punt da canaa", because it was located near the water intake for the mill

Punt from Canaa The deep furrow of the Breggia has always represented a difficult obstacle to crossing the valley. Of the various ways used to pass from one bank to the other, many traces remain within the Park: the oldest is perhaps the Murnée ford. The first indications of the extraordinary bridge built between two rock spurs 35 m above the river bed at the narrowest point of the Gorges date back to 1426: the Farügin bridge (or St. Peter's Bridge. The circular road was built around 1820 between Castel San Pietro and Morbio Superiore which crosses the Breggia with a stone bridge (Punt da Canaa) the large iron bridge (Punt da Castel) was built in 1997, replaced by the current concrete bridge.

Fantastic landscape, very well maintained paths 💯. What can I say, try 👍🥾🚶

The gorges of the Gaggiolo Torrent cut the upper part of the Meride Limestone called Kalkschieferzone, composed of finely stratified limestones and marl, forming a spectacular waterfall

The panoramic terrace of Val Mara is immersed in the woods, just above the Gaggiolo stream, in one of the most evocative panoramic points of Monte San Giorgio.

The gorges of the Gaggiolo Torrent cut the upper part of the Meride Limestone called Kalkschieferzone, composed of finely stratified limestones and marl. Here, in numerous excavation campaigns starting in 1936, the World Heritage site's most recent vertebrate fossils were discovered. The panoramic terrace of Val Mara offers a glimpse of marine deposits and fossils dating back to the Middle Triassic, 239 million years ago. The contents, offered in Italian, German and English, include educational panels, binoculars, casts and models of fossils, stone walls and reconstructions of the Middle Triassic environment, when Val Mara was a subtropical marine basin.

Wonderful natural park created by the flowing waters of the Breggia river.
