The Roggia di Calavino trail is a route through the narrow Canevai gorge between Dosfolòn and Casai, which was made accessible in the late 1990s.
It is an extremely fascinating itinerary that describes the indissoluble bond between the village and its water. A very ancient bond that has developed the expansion of the village around its Roggia. Locally, the initial part is known as the 'Rogia di Val', and it collects the water coming from Lasino as far as the source of the Bus Foràn. From here on, it is known as the 'Roggia Grande' and its course, after crossing the village of Calavino and a series of waterfalls and cascades, flows into the Canevai gorge and then into Lake Toblino.

During the spring and summer seasons, the vegetation turns green, creating an enchanting atmosphere that frames the waterfalls.
