waterfall del sasso by bisignano by bisignano

Cascata del Sasso was a picturesque waterfall that was unique amongst the waterfalls we’ve witnessed in Italy as it was one of the wider block-type waterfalls whereas the vast majority of waterfalls were of the taller, thinner variety. In terms of dimensions, it’s said to be around 100m wide and 15m of cumulative height. When viewed directly, we thought it was certainly one of the more picturesque natural waterfalls in a country where most waterfalls were relatively unknown to begin with.

The waterfall was on the Metauro River near the town of Sant’Angelo in Vado, which was said to start in the long Apennine Mountains then drain out towards the Adriatic Sea. Further to the east was the town of Urbania, and further east of that was the provincial capital of Urbino (part of the joint Pesaro-Urbino Province) in the Marche Region.
