Possibility of taking crazy dives

Fascinating waterfalls, varied in shape and size. They create a sound (which we mistakenly call noise) that allows you to forget your worries, and I dare say it's therapeutic. The trail to reach them is easy, but be careful not to slip due to the constant humidity.

Very suggestive path immersed in the greenery and always close to the stream. I would like to point out that the final part of the return to the valley, as marked by the track, passes through a part of the path that is no longer passable. With difficulty you can pass between cut trunks and collapsed scree.

very suggestive and charged waterfall

From Rifugio Rino Olmo in Valzurio, you can follow the CAI 340 trail, which descends through woods and meadows, along the Ogna stream. The route is suggestive and immersed in nature, with points of interest such as the Buco del Freddo and the Baite del Moschel. The descent lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes, with a difference in altitude of about 850 meters. The trail is well marked and offers splendid views of the surrounding mountains. Once you arrive in Valzurio, you can explore the Marmitte dei Giganti, a fascinating natural phenomenon

The Marmitte dei Giganti of Valzurio, in the province of Bergamo, are spectacular natural basins carved out by the Ogna stream. These geological formations were created thanks to river erosion in areas once covered by glaciers. The hike to reach them is fascinating and also suitable for children, with a difference in altitude of about 300 meters and a travel time of 1 hour and 45 minutes - 2 hours. The most characteristic trail is the CAI 340, which follows the Ogna stream through the woods. A shorter alternative is the dirt road that starts from the car park in Spinelli. Along the way you will come across the Baite del Möschel and the suggestive Buco del Freddo, a stone construction used in the past to preserve fresh products. Once you arrive at the Marmitte, you can admire the crystalline water flowing between the rocks, creating a truly unique landscape
