Awesome

An awesome spot to stop for a bit. Very beautiful but you need to be careful because it's difficult to reach. Amazing pictures and time that you can spend over there.

Awesome place!

Great waterfall to go and spend a nice time, access is fairly easy, you'll need to go down a few rocks but when you reach the spot you'll feel it was worth it.

Small place with amazing waterfall

From the three must known waterfalls in Gerês (this one, arado and Tahiti) this was my favorite. It is a little bit more quiet if you go at early morning. You should be cautious getting there because of the slippery rocks

Fantastic spot

Great Waterfull for Older Peeps

Definitely, is a beautiful waterfall, but no easy access. We carefully, trailed down to lagoon area with our kids. Kids won't be able to access waterfall area though.

Worthwhile day trip from Porto

We spent three nights in Porto and invested one day for an excursion. The choice fell against the Douro Valley and for the Peneda-Geres National Park, followed by a drive through the Vinho Verde-Region and back to Porto down the Northern Coast of Portugal. We...More

Somewhat overrated

Didn't quite live up to the expectations. We were there on a sunny sunday and there were too many screaming children to enjoy the waterfall.

Worth the journey

I went here on the strength of the other reviews on this site. It's certainly worth the journey. We came up from the Portuguese side and the drive up was incredible. Steep winding roads have beautiful views of the valleys below. The location itself was...More

Just go there

This is a great hiking spot. You can walk through the stones into the falls, or just go around and up, to see the falls. Either way, you have to do both! Perfect. :-)

Nature at its best

Very tricky to access - definitely not suitable for people with limited mobility or simply clumsy. But perfect and a must do for young, adventurous and outdoor activities lovers.
