Local interest canyon
Accès:
Reach the Brenta cemetery and park.
Approche (30 min):
Return to the paved road, go down below the sanctuary, and take the dirt road alongside the (often dry) Bosco Piangelli stream. Go uphill, keeping left at the main junctions. When you see the Serpillo Stream on your left, descend to the riverbed as soon as the slope allows.
Tour (1 h 30):
In the initial part, there is a 10 m drop (nat sx) and a 34 m drop (1 anchor sx). Then a walking section and two narrow gorge sections; the first presents no difficulties but nice red limestone, while the second features a nice 10-meter rappel (nt sx) with a pool. Overall, it remains a route for canyoning enthusiasts and collectors. To be done when water levels are high.
Retour (10 min):
Immediately after the last narrow gorge section, the stream has been artificially regulated. On the left, a dirt road leads back to the paved road. From there, head left to return to the cars.
