Turn-by-turn directions
Cross the bridge in front of the impressive "Nardis Falls", with their impressive vertical jump of more than 130 meters. Take the path, well marked with the Adamello Brenta Nature Park signs, on the right of the "Cascate Nardis" refuge. Go on, alongside the Sarca river, into the conifer wood along an up and down path. Cross the river that goes down the "Siniciaga Falls" and go on along the route, almost flat, until the "Valle di Lares". From here the last part of the path (SAT no 214) leads, lightly going uphill, below the Lares Falls.
Take the route backwards until the starting point.
