Wooden Bridge and Rest Area on the Bavona River

Highlight • Bridge

A wooden bridge allows you to get to the other bank of the Bavona without getting wet. There are a few easy-to-reach spots on the bank itself where you can be right by the cold water.

The Faroglio waterfall is one of the most spectacular in the entire Bavona valley. Here the water makes a leap of 110 metres.

For the climb, you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights. There are anchored chains at two points where you can hold on.
Also bring a rain jacket so you can stay relatively dry even when you're close to the waterfall.

Foroglio village and waterfall

Highlight • Settlement

Foroglio is here called representative of the many small villages and farms that line the trail in Val Bavona. Nowadays they all look very picturesque in the wildly romantic and impressive mountain framing. Many houses have been converted into chalets, in former times the living conditions in the valley were extremely hard and it was only temporarily settled permanently.

In Foroglio there is a little tourist infrastructure because of the picturesque scenery in front of the waterfall. And the restaurant La Froda really needs no advertising, too nice sitting on the terrace, not to mention the food ... lafroda.ch/de
