You can view this waterfall by walking the Ruta das fervenzas trail from the Mazaricos town hall. It will take you from the fields of the village of Gosollfre down to the banks of the San Paio and Santa Locacia rivers, which flow towards the Noia estuary.

A steep slope through a dense oak wood brings you to the waterfall. All around you can hear the sounds of the forest and the falling water. Cross a simple log bridge and follow the course of the river along the right bank.

The first waterfall you see is a really straight drop that has cut a groove in the stone. Below that fall is another 3-metre high waterfall, which is spilt in two by the rock in the middle. The trail now circles around away from the river and leads to one of the most impressive waterfalls, surrounded by a thick forest that light does not manage to enter.

This waterfall stands some 15 to 20 metres high and falls into quite a large natural pool.

IMPORTANT: The path down to the natural pool is very steep, so great care must be taken to avoid falling.
