Cascata di Foroglio — Attraction in Circolo della Rovana

Was here at the end of March. It was a cold, wet day. It was still an incredible sight, as was the small town/village at the trailhead you take to get here.

There is one a small cafe serving traditional dishes like polenta and stew, with a view of the falls. Otherwise, bring a picnic and settle in the shade while you...

The village ,the waterfall ...i fought I was in a location where only in fary tails , could be possible !
