You can park in Via Valganna at Rancio Valcuvia in front of the former company A-27 or in the car park behind if the bar is open (45°54'54"N 8°46'34"E).
Approach (20 min):
From the bottom of the car park behind the company A-27 a comfortable marked path leads in ten minutes to the village of Masciago Primo. Turn right to walk direction cemetery and take the path that enters the woods behind the cemetery. At the first fork you meet do not follow the signs to "Casc Upper Waterfalls" but take the upper left path along a fence. Then ignore a path on the left to descend on the right to the stream, just where the canyon starts.
