The Rio Vioz, a stream of about five and a half kilometres that flows down towards the Noce, forms this waterfall a short distance from the lago di Còvel, above Peio Paese; it is also known as the cascata di Còvel. The lake, at 1,839 metres, is a small glacial basin and is what remains of an older lake, the lago di Tarlenta, now reduced to meadow and marsh. A stream leaves the lake and almost immediately flows into the Rio Vioz. You reach it by the hike that climbs from Peio Paese to the lake.

Today in the valleys

Just a moment...

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
