Waterfalls of Algar

The visit consists of a 1.5 km long circuit along the channel of the Algar river (“cave” in Arabic) to see the landscape resulting from the limestone karst modeling: the spectacular waterfalls; the numerous springs that spring from the rock; the “tolls” (pools of water) where you can take refreshing baths with pure and crystalline waters, formerly considered as a “source of health”; the old dam, the imposing canal and the centuries-old ditches still in use today.
