Nesso Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

In the Nesso ravine, two streams meet and flow into the lake after a spectacular 200-meter waterfall. You can enjoy this spectacle from the road, but it is much better to admire it from the ancient Civera bridge over the lake, which can be reached by descending the steps towards the square. Over the centuries, the power of the waters of the Nesso ravine was exploited by mills, paper mills, spinning mills and oil mills.
