ポンテスデガルシアロドリゲスとしての天然記念物・トップ5

A great spot, with shade. There are also downpipes for dipping your feet in the river.

This entrance marks the point from which you should abandon your vehicle and walk or cycle. In fact, there are bike rental services here. There's also a bar and parking, which isn't extensive, and sometimes you'll have to return to other parking lots just before this entrance.

A spectacular natural park, you can explore it directly along the road next to the river (going upstream on the right side), although there is a variant on the left side, accessed by crossing a suspension bridge (the one I show in the photographs). This is more winding and complicated for people with mobility issues, but I consider it more entertaining and beautiful. My ideal route is to climb to the monastery along the left bank and return on the right. If you have mobility issues or want an easier and faster route, go all the way to the right. Regarding the park, I must say it's simply breathtaking. The river and streams that feed us in dozens of places (you'll see them as you walk through) fill you with energy as well as peace and tranquility, the environment completely insulates you from the noise that always surrounds us. I definitely recommend a visit.

Hike through fascinating nature: A beautiful trail through shady forests with eucalyptus trees, pines, and ferns. The ground is soft and covered with moss, and the air is scented with blooming flowers. Dark blue, crystal-clear water accompanies the trail, surrounded by impressive cliffs and mountains. The first part of the route to the monastery is easy and manageable for everyone. Challenging second half: From the old hydroelectric power plant (Antica Centrale Hidroeléctrica), the trail becomes significantly more challenging. It climbs steeply, sometimes over narrow paths with rocky ground. Important information about equipment and fitness: Sturdy shoes with non-slip soles are essential. Surefootedness, a head for heights, and a good sense of balance are beneficial. Those with a strong fear of heights should skip this section or carefully consider whether they feel comfortable.

Beautiful waterfall in the middle of a forest. Accessible terrain with sturdy footwear. Not recommended in rainy weather, even light rain. The trails are well-marked and visible. There are no signs or directions for hiking.

Mega beautiful large waterfall including a large swimming pool. Depending on the water level, you can also swim well here. Even in midsummer the waterfall had a lot of water. Access is quite easy and possible through a beautiful forest area. You can park directly at the start of the trail.

This beautiful waterfall is worth a visit, especially in the rainy season, when the Castro River is loaded with water.
