Unfortunately, I couldn't see the waterfalls. But make sure to stay on the road in the further course and not to take the supposedly shorter route. Steep cobblestones await you there and that's no fun!

Fountain at Pascolo dei Tedeschi

Highlight • Monument

The starting point is at the base of another climb, that of Madonna del Bosco, the maximum gradients are 8% but only for short stretches, otherwise it does not exceed 5/6%. The length is 1.4 km and at the top there is the iconic fountain. From this point you can choose whether to continue uphill (left on via San Sebastiano but harder) or, straight on the sweet and panoramic via Marieni to then have fun towards other branches that will not disappoint.
