모나칠‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 폭포

The final climb to the Siete Lagunas, next to the Chorreros Negras waterfalls, is quite challenging; Komoot said it had a 35% gradient. But it was a fantastic experience! At the end of May, there were still some remnants of snow, and the stream below was carrying plenty of water – so we forded the trail twice and had wet feet – but with temperatures approaching 20 degrees Celsius and sunshine, it quickly dried out again 😀.

This hiking route can be done from several points, but for me the best starting point is leaving the car on the iron bridge that is on the old road of Durcal n-323 Asu, passing by the source, from there we go down to the river just under the iron bridge be careful because the road is a bit slippery once in the same river if we take the right this path would take us to the same waterfall of the bolos we never have to leave the section of the river we will arrive at an area where we find a ditch that is fed by the same cascade of the bolos and the same Durcal river that is born in the lagoon of the horse.

The official trail ends at this point, but in the summer months, when the river level is not high and the heat makes it less important to get wet, you can continue upstream until you reach the spectacular and refreshing Cascada de los Bolos.

It is a great experience to walk over the long suspension bridge... It is not very high above the stream, you should be free from giddiness :-) Under the bridge is a small place to take a break by the creek, the descent is short and easy.

It is a beautiful waterfall formed by melting ice. Ideal to rest and cool off on hot days.

Very nice tour always along the Monachil. You hike over several suspension bridges. Sometimes you have to walk along the river on your knees or by handholds. Easy to handle even on hot days.

This Cahorros de Monachil route began in the town of Monachil, about 14 kilometers from Granada, within the Sierra Nevada Natural Park.
