A clearing where there is a characteristic rural building (privately owned, complete with signs inviting you not to snoop around) and a small church, built on a rock overlooking the Senaiga stream

Molin de Sot (Restored Historic Mill)

Highlight • Historical Site

In the Molin de Sot area there is the former wood and stone mill, which has now been restored and transformed into a home with great care and with a couple of curiosities: the original millstones have been recycled and incorporated into the external paving; some of the stones of the structure (definitely large and disproportionate) were taken from the nearby Roman fortification, built to defend the Via Claudia Augusta, abandoned in the 4th century AD and completely destroyed in 1510 during the invasion of the Lanzichenecchi.

Grotta dell'acqua nera

Highlight • Cave

The large entrance hall of this cave conceals a deep, dark mouth, filled by an underground stream that is always well-fed, even in dry periods. This is the entrance—reserved for cave divers—to a vast and intricate network of cavities deep within the mountain. The water is actually clear, and it is thought that the name derives from the dark moss-covered floor, over which the stream flows before flowing into the Senaiga.

Due to the cave's complex morphology and technical difficulties, exploration began only in the 1970s, and so far, cave divers have discovered a 1,600-meter stretch of siphons and difficult passages. In the 1930s, dye injections proved that this cave communicates with the Castello Tesino Caves, a few kilometers away. Furthermore, an examination of the fine sand found inside, rich in granite crystals, testifies to a significant contribution of water coming from the Cima d'Asta group, much higher and much more distant!

Salton Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

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.

The route is the same for the outward and return journey. It is not an easy route as it is very steep and slippery in several places, furthermore there are some narrow and overhanging sections without protections. I recommend bringing trekking poles as they are useful for maintaining balance in the most slippery points, appropriate shoes must absolutely be used. …

Short excursion in the gorge of the Senaiga stream starting from the village of San Donato (Lamon). The gorge is very narrow and almost never sees the sun. As a result it is very humid and cool. The path is a bit impervious, but not dangerous. In critical points there is a wire rope that acts as a handrail. Better …
