Description

To get to the Pozas de Mallón waterfall, head to Entrimo and from there take the OU-1209 road towards Olelas. At the entrance to the village, you will see a sign for the Pozas and follow the directions to go down an asphalted track to the river. You will need to park where the track ends and continue on foot.

Head back up the river on the right bank until you find a bridge to cross the River Barcia or Castro Laboreiro, which is part of the Miño-Limia Hydrographic Area. The river is a natural border between Spain and Portugal, as it splits the Spanish municipality of Entrimo (Ourense) and the Portuguese municipality of Melgaço (Viana do Castelo).

Up until this point you will have seen small waterfalls but here is where the real waterfalls start.

The best place to get excellent views of the whole series of waterfalls and pools is the viewpoint but getting there requires tackling quite a tough climb.
