To get to this waterfall, start out in O Valdouro, where you take the LU-162 road to Burela. Before reaching the parish of Santa Eulalia de Burdián, you will see signs for the Pozo da Onza. Follow the directions until you reach San Cristovo. Continue on foot from here for roughly 500 metres along a trail that leads straight to the waterfall, which is formed by over 20-metre high quartzite rocks. 

The Pozo da Onza is on the Val dos Infernos stream, a tributary of the River Ouro which rises in the Cabaleiros hills near the Serra do Xistral mountains.
