The route, where water is the main protagonist, starts from the recreational area of Freáns and runs along the river Gorgua. The old mills, located at different points along the route, reflect the rural past and the use of natural resources by the local inhabitants. These ethnographic elements, many of them restored, add charm and a unique cultural value to the route. The route combines the beauty of waterfalls and rapids with the soothing sound of the river, creating an immersive experience in the heart of nature. The trails are surrounded by native vegetation, with trees and bushes forming a green corridor ideal for rest and relaxation. It is a perfect spectacle to immortalise with your photographic equipment. PLEASE NOTE: - During the rainy season some sections of the path may be slippery - There are two water points en route: one in the village of Monterredondo and the other in the village of Lapiñeiras.
