The water before falls is less than that which collects at their feet. This is due to the stratifications and cracks present in the rocks, which cause the water to infiltrate between the layers themselves, reaching the foot of the falls in other ways... #tuttitaly
The 7 Dardagna Waterfalls are located in the Corno alle Scale Regional Park in the Emilian Apennines. A beautiful destination to reach, especially in autumn when the warm colors of the leaves contrast with the cold waters making the climate genuinely suggestive.
The path that leads to the falls begins behind the Sanctuary of the Madonna dell'Acero, near which you can admire the centuries-old tree where legend has it that the Madonna appeared.
You have to follow the CAI 331A trail, which leads on a comfortable and wide path until you reach the Rio Cavo, which you cross on a small wooden bridge. Take the CAI 333 path from here, which climbs into the beech forest, skirting the stream. The trail has steep spots but is softened by stairs and handrails.
Of the seven waterfalls, the last one is the smallest. You will notice that the amount of water before the falls is less than what collects at the foot of the falls. This phenomenon is due to the particular geological conformation. The cracking in the rocks causes the water to infiltrate the substrate and between the strata themselves, reaching the foot of the waterfalls by other routes. (source: goodtrekking.it)
We are sure that the waters are clean when we meet the fire salamander in the Dardagna waters.
Arriving at the last waterfall, you can choose whether to return or complete the circular route by turning left onto the CAI path 337, which leads to Cavone Lake. From here, you can go down the provincial road to Madonna dell'Acero.
