Between Pomte Presalino and Badia Tedalda, turning off before the suspension bridge, you'll find a minor paved road on the left that also leads to the Presalino Waterfall. A pleasant road that passes through scattered ancient houses and through a beautiful forest that leads to the Presalino Waterfall. It's a charming natural waterfall located in the municipality of Badia Tedalda (Arezzo), within the Alpe della Luna State Nature Reserve.

The flow of the water then or less rapid of that waterfall marks the period and the seasons. Passing by here it is almost obligatory to take a photo.

The waterfall can be reached via Badia Tedalda, along an asphalt road that starts from the main square of the town and descends quite steeply towards the waterfall, or you can pass through Ponte Presale and follow the signs for "piscina nera" after 1 km, always on paved road with no slopes, you arrive at the waterfall. Much more beautiful in spring because it is richer in water.

Near Borgo Pace, the Auro river generates several waterfalls. They can be reached from the path next to the bridge, the road is very short and runs alongside the river. From here it will be easy to go down to take an excellent swim in the natural pool that creates the waterfall. The most popular natural pools are instead a little further on in the opposite direction. They are very easy to find because there are several cars parked on the side of the road. Here the Auro river creates pools and small waterfalls along its course, excellent for cooling off on a summer day. However, there is also a thermal spring, indicated by a sign right on the roadside.
