From the top of the Pitões waterfall, in addition to the impressive waterfall, you can see the beautiful Beredo oak forest, where the Pyrenean oak is a perennial species, perfectly adapted to the climate and altitude of this region. If you look towards the horizon, the imposing outline of the Gerês mountain range completes this scene of pure natural beauty.

The waters of this waterfall come from the Pitões stream, which, due to the uneven terrain, develops over several levels, the first of which is about 30 meters high and flows into a lake bounded by granite outcrops. This waterfall is one of many in the Barroso region and feeds several rivers that originate in the Serra do Gerês.
