Top 10 Waterfalls around Fonzaso

Pleasant location in a large grassy basin.

The Salton waterfall, fed by the Senaiga stream, is a real Eldorado for canyoning fans. And not overcrowded.

A very beautiful waterfall. But be careful! The lower part was very slippery, and the suspension bridge with its metal grate was very dangerous for dogs. Their claws could easily get caught in the metal and injure themselves.

The Saltòn Waterfall is a hidden gem in the heart of the Prealps, on the border between Trentino and Belluno: the Senàiga stream makes a spectacular 30-meter leap, carving its way through a natural rock amphitheater. The setting is heavenly and breathtaking! 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.

Suggestive cascading waterfall that descends from a small valley to plunge into Lake Corlo: one of the small waterfalls that you encounter and cross along the lakeside ledge on the eastern side of the basin.

Suggestive cascading waterfall that descends from Val Fontana to plunge into Lake Corlo: one of the small waterfalls that you encounter and cross along the lakeside ledge on the eastern side of the basin.

It's a magical place, the trees are covered in moss. You enter this valley and suddenly you find a beautiful waterfall in front of you. The last piece to get down to the valley must be done with caution! Good boots and be careful, but it's worth it.

Serra bridge Majestic gateway to the Cismon valley, you can admire the centenary dam by crossing the bridge on the border between the municipalities of Sovramonte and Lamon. The spectacular waterfall gives way to engineering work in the least rainy periods, a view that leaves its mark in all seasons and conditions. Crossing point on the Cismon of the Roman Via Paolina and therefore of the road to Lamon, until 1880 there was a wooden bridge, replaced in that year by a 35 meter high stone bridge, blown up by the retreating Italians in 1917. Rebuilt in shape earlier, it was again blazed by the retreating Germans on May 2, 1945. For the next two years it was replaced by an iron Bailey bridge, while the current concrete bridge was inaugurated in 1947. Given its position, it was the seat of duties since the Middle Ages, and from the 15th century it became the cause of endless disputes, especially with the Tesini. In the flood of 1748, a large boulder stopped under the bridge. Subsequently this facilitated the construction of a barrier for the timber, or greenhouse, which then gave the name to the locality. Previously it was called Ponte Alto or also Pontetto. On the upper mountain side, the road coming from Fonzaso split into two branches: one led to the bridge, the other pointed towards the Ausor Valley, fording it and going up to Sorriva. A little upstream in 1909 the masonry dam, which still exists today, was built to serve the Pedesalto hydroelectric plant.
