Its source is in Italy near Pioda di Crana. It passes through Bagni, a frazione of Craveggia, then entering Switzerland it flows through Onsernone, Mosogno, Isorno and Intragna, where it joins the Melezzo Orientale.

Its valley, although easily reached from Lugano, Bellinzona, Domodossola and Locarno, is one of the wildest in Switzerland, and there is a proposal to institute a national park like that of Engadin.

gollark: A random Minecraft mod which deals with sound a bit uses DFPWM (https://wiki.vexatos.com/dfpwm) which is seemingly quite simple and has C and Java implementations, but it is also not very good.
gollark: Maybe there's some sort of simple codec you could, er, encode it with?
gollark: Wouldn't that just be an SDR and some software these days?
gollark: It sounds like a weird thing which wouldn't transfer well to other radio stuff.
gollark: <@224348995844177920> It's from an RTL-SDR and some software. RTL-SDRs are cheap software defined radio receivers using a digital TV receiver chip which turned out to have SDR capabilities for some reason.
