Workaway in Pratolungo, Italy – Part 3: The Waterfalls

Oh the elusive waterfalls! We heard about these waterfalls when we first arrived, a ‘must see’ for any working guest at ‘Centro’. It took us six weeks and many explanations later to find them. It wasn’t that they were hard to find or very far away but the directions were somewhat confusing when they were verbally explained. Also, we didn’t get around to it as we were spending lots of time at the lake.

To clarify there are two sets of waterfalls; the ‘small’ and the ‘big’. The small waterfall was actually pretty big the day we visited as it had rained for a few days before so there was lots of water. We weren’t quite sure how to hike up to the big falls (so named as there are many falls flowing down) so we returned to the big falls a few days before we left. It was a wonderful autumn day – we saw lots of different mushrooms along the way and the leaves on the oak trees were turning glorious colours! Glad to say we ticked those ‘must see’ destinations off our list.
