The Verde natural waterfalls, divided into three consecutive jumps of about 200 meters, are of great scientific importance, both for the position and for the existing microclimate. These are the highest natural waterfalls in the Apennines, second in Italy and among the highest in Europe. They are fed by perennial waters, even if variable in the flow during the year. The waterfalls, located within the Regional Reserve of the same name, are located in a wide canyon, whose rocky walls are covered by dense Mediterranean vegetation. Rare mammals like skunks and wild cats live and camouflage in the surrounding woods.

The Reserve Office is located in Borrello in Via Silvio Spaventa. At the Visitor Center, which also houses the small restaurant, you can find explanatory leaflets in the area.

Both areas are also equipped with tables.
