The Fórnea stream originates here, in the Cova da Velha cave, where a natural spring flows almost all year round. However, due to the limestone soil, the water easily infiltrates, traveling through underground galleries instead of flowing freely on the surface. As a result, the stunning Fórnea waterfall only reveals its full grandeur after days of heavy rain.

The Sheep's Sink is an imposing natural cavity, named after the sink carved under a stalactite that, in the rainy months, pours out abundant water. In the past, this natural refuge served as a drinking trough for cattle.

The Buraco Roto is a necropolis of singular beauty, hidden in a lush forest of oak, laurel and cork oak trees. In the rainy months, it becomes a natural spectacle, spilling large quantities of water and forming an impressive waterfall.

The Fórnea Waterfall is located right in the heart of the Serras de Aire e Candeeiros Natural Park, and is fed by the Fórnea Stream, which in turn flows from the Cova da Velha cave.

Nice quiet route. No water at the waterfall, unfortunately. Because that would give a different experience, certainly worth it for the beautiful views

The waterfall only appears after heavy rain! Fórnea waterfall just appear after intense rain!

Actually, there is supposed to be a waterfall here. Unfortunately dried out due to the drought in July.
