Among the many visitors to the Marmore Falls, the figure of Lord Byron is unforgettable, to whom the square in front of the last jump was also dedicated: here, in fact, the English poet was struck by this waterfall "incomparable cataract, horribly beautiful". The sculpture created for Byron by the artist Peppe Di Giuli consists of a steel ingot bench on which, as if it had been elegantly thrown by Byron, stands the gilded bronze cloak with the book next to it on which it is engraved in Italian and in English the text dedicated by the poet to the Marmore Falls.
“She advances
Like an eternity to swallow
Everything that comes across scares the eye
Blissful, incomparable cataract
Horribly beautiful.
Whence this noise? It's from Velino
Which falls plumb into the abyss
From the alpine edge of the mountain
Huge cataract and lightning
As fast as…
Foam in heaven
It rises and falls in perpetual rain
Inexhaustible cloud and sweet dew
Which germinates around an evergreen
May, a carpet of emeralds”.
Lord Byron – 1816 (the year he, aged 28, visited the Cascade)

Entrance to the Marmore Falls from the lower Belvedere. For some years now, bicycles have been allowed to enter the lower part for free to bypass the nearby tunnel on the provincial road. To access, just contact the custodians directly near the entrance gate. You will be asked to carry the bicycle by hand, but it is a small price to pay to enjoy a unique landscape for free.

Collestatte

Highlight • Settlement

On the road that leads to Valnerina you can see Collestatte. The town is made up of an old part, on the top of a hill (351 m above sea level) and the new part, lower down, called Collestatte Piano, with a total of 397 inhabitants. Nice to see

Arrone Historic Village

Highlight • Settlement

Arrone takes its name from its founder, a Roman nobleman who settled in this area in the 9th century AD, building a wooden castle around which a village slowly grew. The current appearance is the medieval one still dominated by the castle, now in masonry, which stands at the top of the hill. Arrone is included in the list of the "Most beautiful villages in Italy" and is located within the Nera river park. The municipal area is suitable for various sporting activities such as cycling, hiking, rafting and rock climbing. Don't miss the local specialty: river prawn broth and trout fillet.

from here the climb towards Polino begins, approximately 14km with an average gradient of just over 6%. It is the right place to stop and look at the profile of the climb, placed on a useful sign, and refresh yourself before the climb
