Grotta dell'acqua nera
Highlight • Cave
Due to the cave's complex morphology and technical difficulties, exploration began only in the 1970s, and so far, cave divers have discovered a 1,600-meter stretch of siphons and difficult passages. In the 1930s, dye injections proved that this cave communicates with the Castello Tesino Caves, a few kilometers away. Furthermore, an examination of the fine sand found inside, rich in granite crystals, testifies to a significant contribution of water coming from the Cima d'Asta group, much higher and much more distant!

Salton Waterfall
Highlight • Waterfall
At the bottom of the valley, the setting is fairytale-like: the water flows crystal-clear and lively between the high walls of the gorge, with hues ranging from light blue to turquoise; moss envelops rocks and entire trees, creating a fairy-tale, almost surreal atmosphere.
To reach the waterfall, you follow an adventurous and steep trail that descends steeply to the valley floor from the Molin de Sot area. The most exposed and slippery sections are equipped with ladders, cables, and metal handrails; you cross three rickety bridges; the final stretch is a narrow ledge over the deep gorge. This is a route marked EE: it's nothing particularly difficult, but it definitely requires familiarity with rough terrain and good hiking shoes. The return journey is obviously all uphill. The waterfall can also be reached from the SP212 road that connects Castel Tesino to Lamon.
