Description

To reach the viewpoint over this waterfall, head to the village of Hedrada, in Vilariño de Conso. Park up at the entrance to the village before continuing on foot. Make your way between the houses and, at the end, you will see a path that passes by a fountain and rises all the way up to the waterfall.

There are no signs showing the path to follow, except for an information board and two signs at a split in the path halfway up the slope. One sign leads to the waterfall and the other to Pico Ortiga.

Take the right-hand path to get to the viewpoint where a wooden platform allows you to take in the waterfall in all its glory.

The total walking distance is roughly 3.2km (out and back). The climb is somewhat steep and, when rainy, take care to avoid slipping on the stone path.

IMPORTANT: Water runoff in heavy rainfall may make access to the viewpoint difficult or impossible.
