Description

In the parish of Burgueira (Oia), in the Baixo Miño region, you can find this small circular route of just over one kilometre that runs along the banks of the River Tamuxe, also known as the River Carballas.

The walk starts in the Pozo del Arco recreation area, an area of pine trees with benches and picnic tables. A little further down is the wooden bridge that crosses the river where you can see the waterfall from above. 

On the walk you can observe how the river forms rapids and small waterfalls as it descends that create natural pools that are deep enough to take a dip in on hot days.
