Accès:

Approche (25 min):
From the center of Carcoforo, follow the trail marked "Rifugio Boffalora-Colle d'Egua." It climbs steeply at first, then flattens out as it enters the valley, and you'll come across a beautiful waterfall, which you'll need to cross. A little further on, cut downhill across the meadow, looking for the with sign on a tree, there you can easy go down into the riverbed.
Tour (2 h):
We begin, and the first stretch is a succession of descents no deeper than 20 meters, a few dips, and a bit of walking. After about an hour, we reach the beautiful C30, with a friction run and handrail, beneath a beautiful, very deep pool. We continue walking on the slippery riverbed and return directly to the village.
