On the Martello Valley Trail (Marteller Talweg), just before the Zufrittbach stream flows into the Zufritt Stausee lake, there is a wooden bridge that crosses a stretch of the stream characterized by a series of small waterfalls. Here, the crystal-clear water of the Gioveretto stream flows vigorously, forming waterfalls and pools that stand out among the rocks, within an idyllic Alpine setting.
