The Walk

Cerves River Waterfalls
At the foot of serra do Faro de Avión

This is a classic easy hiking route, following the Cerves River from the car park next to the N-120 road. In the first section we will see several areas of wide waterfalls (it is necessary to be careful because of the slipperiness of the stones), some of them over 14 m high, until we reach the access bridge to the village of As Mestas.

Here the river takes a break as it is a flat area until we start the ascent to the viewpoint of the last waterfall, which we can reach by going down to the bridge that crosses the Cerves River and the metal platform that allows us to stand above its waters. We can return by retracing our steps or, if we are in good shape, we can continue through the village of Tourón, thus making the route longer.
