Waterfalls of
Friuli Venezia Giulia
Ideal period: spring - summer - autumn
What to expect
The wild force of nature creating a unique spectacle of water, air and rock. The territory of Friuli is rich in picturesque corners where a rare spectacle can be admired: waterfalls. In the midst of Friuli Venezia Giulia’s magical and unspoiled nature gush waterfalls of different heights, some better known, others less so, sometimes because they are more difficult to reach. Waterfalls hidden in the midst of the woods, jumps that alternate with streams or deep erosion pools, waterfalls above emerald pools that become oases of relaxation.

Waterfalls Val D'Arzino
In this place there is not just one large waterfall but a spectacular succession of small waterfalls that run through the gorge and seem to chase each other, divide and reunite, foaming down or sliding fast over the rock.

Walking along the path and crossing the Roman bridge, two waterfalls are encountered, the first of which is already visible under the arch of the bridge itself. The two waterfalls are different from each other, but both very characteristic.
