This easy walk through sunny meadows and thin woodland takes you over bridges and babbling streams to the foot of the mighty Sella massif, where the Pisciadú waterfall tumbles down over the rocks. The easy walk is also ideal for families with children.

Turn-by-turn directions
Go north from the car park at the Boé cable car, until you reach the road leading from Corvara to Colfosco. Follow the eponymous route which gently climbs to the river Pisciadú, after the campsite. After entering Val de Misdé, take the marked path no. 28 until you reach an enchanting meadow area at the very foot of the Grup dl Sela (boulders, larches, benches, streams, shelters). Walking on the path, climb up a little way towards the Sella walls, and you will come to the Pisciadú waterfall (1730 m).
Back now to the junction by the enclosure. On a slightly uphill path, bearing left, you will pass close to the Rönn farm but keep following signs for "Cascades", until you come to the indicated bus stop at Hotel Luianta in Colfosco and head back to Corvara.
