I remember ...

After the short gorge, Vallone di Reginella continues its long descent towards Ortiano creek. Apart from a pretty waterfall in the granite, just over 10 m high, the descent is a very long walk in a detrital valley, which soon turns into a fiumara. Only near to the end the valley encloses in a gorge again, in the flysch, with a few little cascades and pools. This part of the valley is known as Fosso Petrone.
