Sintesi:
Short, simple, yet attractive canyon for beginners.
Accesso:
Downstream access: In Agrano, park near the public park or, if possible, just before the bridge over the Pescone (limited parking). Upstream access: Return to Agrano and turn right onto Via Mottarone (a very narrow road). Follow this road as it leaves the village and begins to climb. Park near the agriturismo “Il Glicine - Alpe Selviana” or just beyond it.
Avvicinamento (5 min):
Enter the agriturismo and pass through it (politely ask for permission as you go). Then continue across the meadows on a flat path until you find a trail that leads down to the stream.
Giro (1 h):
6 waterfalls, including a nice natural slide. The 35 m waterfall is split into sections, with the longest drop being 10 m.
Ritorno (5 min):
After the final rappel, exit on the right and follow a descending path that leads back to the road and shortly after to the parked car.
