The medium-easy difficulty hike partly develops in the cool woods of Val di Peio and partly on a comfortable dirt road exposed to the sun until you reach the Piz del Pai Waterfalls.
This pleasant walk starts above the small village of Celentino and will make you cross wide and green meadows exposed to the warm rays of the sun, then enter the dense woods where you can enjoy a pleasant refreshing breeze. After leaving the comfortable dirt road, the route continues along a simple path up to the waterfall. Let yourself be enchanted by the Val di Pejo woods, enjoy the cool water jets sliding on your skin and admire the small but charming drop of the Piz del Pai Waterfall, falling into the narrow rock gorge below.
Rules for mountain walks:
Above the village of Celentino (1342 m), take the road towards Malga Campo and travel about 400 m on the paved road, and just before the road turns into a dirt road, leave the car at the small parking lot. From here, a rather steep path starts, which after a short distance becomes easier and alternates false flats with gentler climbs. At the end of the dirt road, take a simple path through the woods that after 5-10 minutes leads to the waterfall (1535 m). The route is very pleasant, surrounded by green meadows along which you can feel the warmth of the sun's rays on your skin, and dense woods in the shade where you can enjoy a break on warm summer afternoons. The waterfall is not imposing, but its particular shape nestled in a narrow gorge of rocks and the beautiful natural environment surrounding it make it a jewel worth visiting.
ALTERNATIVE ROUTE:
Possibility of a circular hike starting from the village of Celledizzo, taking the dirt road to Celentino and after 300 m turning left, following the signs for Malga Sassa, Piz del Pai Waterfall. From the waterfall, take the path towards the village of Celentino, from which you take the dirt road "Le Penagiole" to the right until Celledizzo.
