We had an amazing tour from park guide/ geologist Dr. Donnatella Reggiori. She showed us two paths: one starts from the Mulino del Ghitello to the Mulin del Canaa and the second one form the Mulin del Canaa to Ghitello. The geological contents of the Breggia Gorge makes the park one of the most important geo-topes in Switzerland. Along the river you can see the geology profile that is continuous between the Jurassic and the Tertiary periods. If you look closely, you can see evidence of the ancient seas in the rocks of the Gorge: layers extremely rich in fossils, remains of underwater landslides, witness to climatic changes in eras long before man appeared on Earth, and proof of volcanic eruptions. Dr. Reggiori will give you a full lesson in Geology on the tour. Make sure your kids take notes, they may be able to get extra credit in school :)
