The route
It starts on Calle Iglesia, opposite the Town Hall. From the Plaza Mayor you go down a stone ramp to the river following the "Pasarelas de Vero" signs. You follow the river by walkways and steps, pass the Picamartillo cave and the weir, reach the plant, and from there climb among olive trees towards the town, with the option of returning via the O Bicón viewpoint. There are steps and a steep slope on the final climb.
With children
Babies up to four years or 15 kg must go in a baby carrier: no pushchairs. Anyone carrying a child on their back must have their hands free the whole time. With children who walk, from about age eight the route is fine. The tourist office runs, on autumn weekends and public holidays, a three-hour interpretive visit at 10:00: €18 for adults, €12 for ages 8 to 15.
