River pools - Waterfalls
Besides river pools and waterfalls close to all the places mentioned, there are also famous river pools and waterfalls of Argentina, which are quite suitable in many places for smaller
children.
Montalto:
By car down the mountain to the T-junction, turn left to Badalucco and sea, turn right again after 200 m, at the "Trattoria da Graziella" (reasonably priced lunch menu to 13h 45) and after
another 150m drive, park near the bridge at the lane road beside the river into the
valley (towards West). If you pass the yellow house on the river and the old stone house behind it, turn left, down a trail to the river, there you will find the majestic baths and waterfalls.
Montalto is a haven for rejuvenation.

Badalucco:
Various options: In addition to the washing area of the old ladies at the end of the small lane (which leads from the Piazza with the church to the river), you can work on your tan among the
rocks. The small waterfalls are excitingly refreshing. From the small parking lot behind the bridge opposite the pharmacy, at the end, you can go down to the river and swim there. The waves
are flatter and so also suitable for smaller children.
From Montalto, turn off the new bridge over the river (opposite the pharmacy) to the right and continue to the end of the parking lot.
