The Sentiero Natura Val Falcina loop guides you through a unique V-shaped valley, deeply carved into Dolomia Principale rock, revealing impressive vertical rock layers and small canyons. As you hike through a beautiful mixed forest, you'll enjoy picturesque views of Lake Mis, small waterfalls, and areas with turquoise water, all dramatically enclosed by the dolomitic walls of Mount Pizzocco. This easy hike covers 2.7 miles (4.3 km) with an elevation gain of 862 feet (263 metres), typically taking about 1 hour and 33 minutes to complete.
Start your journey at Pian della Falcina, conveniently located near the artificial Lake Mis, where you'll find amenities like a picnic area, a refreshment point, and parking. The trail is best explored from March to November. While generally easy, some sections feature steep inclines and can be slippery, so wearing appropriate hiking boots is advisable. You will also encounter slightly exposed parts, which are safely protected with wooden parapets and steel ropes.
This trail stands out for its educational value, with information boards along the route explaining the area's geology, botany, and fauna. The valley's unique V-shape is a remarkable example of fluvial incision influenced by the significant Faglia del Pizzocco fault, showcasing steep rock layers. It's also a biodiversity hotspot, home to unique plant species and various wildlife, including passerine birds, Golden Eagles, and Grass Snakes, earning it the nickname "Bellunese fjord" for its dramatic beauty.
