Valley Ceredo



Going over the falls along the valley of Ceredo, which link the handful, there are other surprises. The valley is narrow and rough, and salt in small jump between slides of rock and zig-zag between the fallen trunks and branches, pieces of nylon and other abandoned waste, sometimes in bridle wall and a continuous stretch of "stones mori", the typical volcanic rock of our hills. E 'steep slopes and thanks to this I have grown lush trees, mostly oaks, maples, European hornbeam. A fine example of oak arbor, with specimens of large dimensions.



On the right bank of the forest there are over a wide area in abandoned meadows and water outcrops, indicating that the land here are waterproof and the water flow is difficult. The horsetails (horsetail - Equisetum arvense ) thrive on its own soil saturated with water. The season continues to be mild and I find it a strain on some bushes "elm mushrooms (Flammulina velutipes ), a species which is also in the winter for its ability to withstand the cold.




kernels ( Corilus avellana) are already in bloom and their male catkins are gilded yellow.
It is up here just a formation of stones (the corileto) just between the forest and uncultivated meadows of the valley above. The core fact is a plant called "pioneer" who goes to colonize abandoned fields, setting the stage to welcome the longest-lived species such as oak and hornbeam. The corileto But in some situations it can perpetuate a long time, managing to cover all the ground and leaving no room for other species. With his "nuts" is a trophic niche for many animals, squirrels, voles, nutcrackers, rates ...




Mist and cold winter colors bring out the stylized forms of the trees, so the naturalist enjoys doing some photos, appreciating the beauty of cherry and walnut blocks, as the two copies of the following photos, which make the landscape handful of very nice for long healthy walks of arzignanesi. Too bad that on this day the air was not just the best. From the square all the way up in the hills today because the stench of the tanneries has plagued every place. The nature and compensates
resists until he can, until it is too late to correct the shot.
The signs of a disaster waiting to happen unfortunately already there, with flowering peach trees in January and whirlwinds coming from the north. Perhaps the protection of our small room, to preserve a cherry or walnut blocks, will not be enough, but the sea is made of many drops and we do our small part.

The cascade of secret handful

Go to the woods in winter has its charms. And 'the triumph of the mosses. In particular, the mild weather of recent months has prompted the development of mosses are in full vegetative stage and almost a bright green glow, softening rocks, masiere, stems and branches of trees.

need special attention because the soil is very sticky and slippery for the presence of wet leaves and algae on the rocks. All branches are bare and the shape of the trunks and the ground is clearly visible. The valleys are usually steep, but perhaps more viable because free from the thorns and leaves. Going along the valley of Ceredo, which link the handful on the right side of the "Bojon of Restena" Glen is a fresh, perhaps the deepest and Arzignano moist, rich with ferns, mosses, cyclamen, and some summer rush tacks tasty autumn (Armillaria mellea ).

In the picture a fine example of a "language of deer" ( Phyllitis scolopendrium) a fern like the rocks of the woods and very damp.


Risalendo con attenzione lungo la valletta ci si ritrova di fronte una piccola cascata alta circa 10 metri, nascosta sui tre lati da una fitta boscaglia incolta e verso valle protetta da una briglia in calcestruzzo che la rende praticamente inaccessibile. La briglia è stata costruita nel 1988 dai servizi forestali regionali e da allora non è più possibile avvicinarsi facilmente alla cascata.


Pur essendo vicina alla strada che sale a Pugnello, non è visibile nella maggior parte dell'anno perchè sommersa nel verde. D'inverno si rende visibile ma bisogna avvicinarsi molto e cercarla sotto la strada vicino al ponticello. Si può ritenere che il boschetto al piede jump, closed between the waterfall and the bridle and between the steep sides of the valley is perhaps the only one grove "secret" Arzignano, inaccessible to man, forgotten in its wild freshness.
