They are located 100 km north of Milan, 50 km from Bergamo, near the village of Valbondione, in the Bergamo Alps (Italian: Alpi Orobie) upper Valle Seriana, Province of Bergamo, in the alpine Lombardy region of Northern Italy.[2] Located at 1751m MAMSL, the falls are composed of three main steps, respectively 166, 74 and 75 metres tall; taken together the falls have a drop of 315 m (more than 1000 ft). The falls are formed by the Serio River, at a short distance from its source in the Bergamo Alps (Alpi Orobie).[3]
