DESCRIPTION

The Balze del Valdarno, also known as Smotte, are a characteristic geotope, consisting of stratified sands, clays and gravels, up to a hundred metres high, of different shapes, interspersed with deep gorges. These are the result of the erosion of lake sediments in the Upper Valdarno by atmospheric agents and watercourses.
