Fosso del Morrone is a valley embedded in the hills of Percile. In the rainy season it is crossed by green and pristine waters that create small waterfalls and low pools.
The result is a simple route in a beautiful natural environment, perfect for someone to have first canyoning experience.
The excellent grip of travertine rock allows experts to downclimb almost all the waterfalls.

What you find in the detailed description
I remember ...
Exploring a stream is not just going to see what a place is like: it is giving it meaning, building an itinerary linked to emotions.
But that day, after the exploration was over, I could not find a meaning for that stream, which although pretty, was insignificant to me.
The meaning came to me a few weeks later: when I needed a torrent suitable for my daughter's first canyoning experience, I realized that the Morrone was perfect for the purpose.
