Cenghen Waterfall , called also Val Monastero Waterfall , is the highest of Grigne Group and it is situated in Abbadia Lariana.
It is crossed by the waters of the Zerbo creek , that go down fierce through a cleft in the rock and which shape a crystalline and fresh waterhole.
The waterfall is situated at about 600m of altitude and it is easily reachable with a short route that , starting from Abbadia or Linzanico , goes through Val Monastero.
The itinerary is recommended to everyone because it is composed by laneds and confortable paths. This route is suitable in all the seasons , even if is particularly recommended during the summer time , and it could be combined with a trekking on Wanderer’s Trail.

You can find some chains that could help you to climb without sliding, then you finally reach near Rifugio Brioschi ( hut ) and observation deck.
In the peak you can find a little Church in glass that is dedicated to St. Mary of the paths , the peak cross and a sort of cylinder that presents the names of the tops and of the locations that you can admire , its high and the direction in wich you have to see.

The winter choise , instead , goes on from Baite dei Comolli and Bivacco Riva Girani ( 1830 m ), through a very steep rap , called wailing wall , until the Grignone north – east crest. This is the more challenging part of the itinerary because of the slope that reach 45 grades and of the eventual accumulation of snow that you can find ; for this reason it is necessary to carry with you the proper equipment ( crampons and pick ).
