Have you ever visited some “Orridi”? If you like exploring particular places you certainly can’t miss the “the Orridi of Uriezzo”! 

They are located near Antigorio Valley, a nice valley not far from Domodossola.

But let’s took a step behind… do you know how “Orridi” were created?

During the last glaciation, all of Antigorio Valley was covered by the glacier of Toce. at the botttom of this glacier several rivers flowed. Over time the flow of the water eroded the surrounding rocks, creating narrow gorges and valleys. when the glacier began to melt and the rivers began to disappear, these alpine canyons started to appear. Today you can enjoy a pleasant walk and visit the “Orridi”, surrounded by an incredible landscape!

There are 3 “Orridi” were you can walk through, the most spectacular is surely “Orrido Sud”. The excursion to Orridi can continue to “Marmitte dei Giganti”(Maiesso area), cylindrical rocks carved by the abrasive action of the melting waters of the glaciers.
