One of the most unique natural spectacles of the area is the Earth Pyramids found in the Cislano area of Zone.
The Reserve, established in 1984, takes its name from the particular shape the morainic deposit of sand, stones, and pebbles has acquired over the centuries, transforming into rock spires up to 30 meters high, with large boulders resting on top, acting as protective shields. Adding to this protective action is a film of insoluble clay that surrounds the earth pyramid, transported by water along the sides of the structure. The erosion process, caused by atmospheric agents, is continuous and becomes visible over the course of several decades.
Racing bike/e-bike recommended (not allowed inside the reserve)
