Ner the mouth of Val Foiera, the river can be forded to the left bank, where a little-used trail runs to Velina. The crossing is tricky and only possible when the stream is low.

Einige Seen in der Schlucht des Rio Valgrade laden besonders zum Baden ein, auch wenn das Wasser meistens recht kalt ist. Hier ist ein besonders schönes Exemplar.

If the water level is low, parts of the Rio Valgrande riverbed are accessible. The river is deeply cut in and often the banks are sheer cliffs, at times barring the way.

Near the gorge at L'Arca, there's a cave. It's been used as a shelter and has a few utensils lying about, but it's a gloomy, dark and damp place, and not entirely safe if there's a flash flood.

At L'Ara, the trail crosses the Rio Valgrande to continue towards In la Piana at the left river bank. The river passes through this narrow gorge between prominent looming cliffs.

Before beginning the descent to L'Arca, the trail passes near this spot where the gorge at L'Arca can be seen from above. The view down to the river shows that the trail runs on the top of a steep cliff.

The trail from Orfalecchio to L'Arca passes over this ridge. It's quite a way off the river, and also a bit of a climb to get here, due to the very rugged terrain, where it's hard to find a passage through the cliffs.

Where Val Cauri disgorges into the Rio Valgrande, there's quite a large lake. A little bit further downstream, at its lower end, the river is quite shallow and can be waded if the water level isn't too high.

Val Piana is a wild valley formed by a stream coming down from the Corni di Nibbio. Here it meets the Rio Valgrande, almost opposite the mouth of Val Cauri.

The Riale Ancino disgorges into San Bernardino where it does a spectacular loop around a prominent cliff. Standing on this flat stone, one has an unobstructed view over the whole bend.

Near Alpe Orfalecchio, the San Bernardino loops around a prominent cliff. The riverbed is strewn with house-size rocks, and there are also some smoothed rock terraces like the one I'm standing on.
