Very suggestive waterfalls of the Rioscuro torrent.

wonderful place, the trail is very easy

This source of very fresh water is located near the village and can be reached by following a short stretch of the Coleman Trail. Right next to the stream there is a sculpture dedicated to the Cinetesi women (of Cineto Romano) who with their work have left a mark in the history of the town.

Cineto Romano is a small town that dominates the valley of the Ferrata stream. The old village rises right around the Orsini castle which, with its grandeur, defines the profile. From the town, with a short and simple walk also for families, you can reach the Rio Scuro waterfalls, a pleasant place surrounded by nature.

The humid environment is characterized by travertine formations and by the presence of crayfish (Austropotamibius pallipes), an indicator of the integrity of the ecosystem, and of the spectacled salamander (Salamandrina perspicillata). (Internet source)

Crayfish (Austropotamibius pallipes), indicator of the integrity of the ecosystem and the spectacled salamander (Salamandrina perspicillata).

This stretch of uncovered path allows you to admire a splendid panorama towards the internal area of the Lazio Apennines. From the Lucretili mountains to the west, to the Ruffi and Simbruini to the south. The presence of animals in the wild, especially horses, gives a sense of peace and relaxation. It is worth stopping here for a few minutes and enjoying the view and the silence.

The Rioscuro stream is among the Natural Monuments of Lazio and is a protected area. The clear waters are home to crayfish and spectacled salamander. Biological indicators of ecosystem integrity. These waterfalls are a hidden jewel of the Lucretili mountains and a testimony to the richness of biodiversity of the natural areas around the capital!
