Safety information

Rules for mountain walks:

  • The accessibility of routes in a mountain environment is strictly linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, get good information about the route and its conditions before leaving. You can do this by contacting the Information Office nearest to you;
  • If you plan to reach a mountain hut or refuge, make sure these are open, and if you intend to stop for food or accommodation, call them in advance to book;
  • Leave itinerary details and always carry your mobile phone;
  • In case of an accident, call 112;
  • Never leave waste in high altitude areas and, if possible, avoid leaving it at the refuges or mountain huts you visit;
  • If you see wild animals along the route, we invite you to stay on the path you are following, not get too close, do not shout, and keep your dog on a leash to prevent it from instinctively chasing and frightening them.

Starting point

Mezzana - Piazza Trento

Directions

The simple route that leads to the waterfalls starts from Piazza Trento, in the center of the village of Mezzana, a mountain village named precisely because of its location in the valley. In the square, before setting off, the parish church dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul and the Sanctuary of Madonna di Caravaggio definitely deserve a visit. Built next to each other, the two churches are true architectural testimonies: the first was built between 1498 and 1536, and the second starting from 1707. After visiting the two buildings, start the route along Via Maturi for about 150 m and cross the Rio Spona. Then take the road on the right that leads to Piazza della Novalina, from where you take the “Plazöle” road on the left, and after 500 m continue on the right to reach the waterfall. The return is expected along the same outward path.

Public transportation

You can reach Mezzana with the TRENTO-MALÉ-MEZZANA train (download the schedules for outbound and return).
