マルツィオの峡谷・トップ8

Great grotto worth a visit

Final waterfall

Unfortunately, a very noisy quarry directly below the waterfall

Unfortunately, there is a lot of traffic on this scenic stretch

Following the course of the Trallo it is therefore possible to retrace a part of the history of Brusimpiano: some remains of the mills are still visible. The area is also characteristic from a mineralogical and fossiliferous point of view, as the abandoned mine shows. The arrival point is a suggestive waterfall of clear water that falls from a height of about ten meters into a pool dug into the rock, like in a glass of champagne, forming foam, dust and rainbows. From there the Trallo begins its course, silent and slow, descending in leaps into the narrow gorge of the valley. Source: www.visitbrusimpiano.com

It's also an experience at night 😜. We girls really enjoyed it and it was a bit scary too 😉. The waterfall comes down like a veil, well worth seeing.

Typical Ticinese grotto, with a double bowling green, immersed in the cool lime and chestnut forest, with a panoramic view of the gulf of Riva San Vitale and its Ceresio lake.

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
