Very nice hiking trip visiting the Pineta valley with its two rivers Cinca and La Larry and its waterfalls. Go with good shoes and water. Quite a slope but accessible for people without previous experience. You can go from 1:30 to 2:00 to the waterfalls and go down or do what we did with a tour of about 5 hours in total visiting both waterfalls. We saw a deer and a lot of local fauna including insects, birds and reptiles. Simply enjoy the views, which are beautiful.

Nature is overwhelmingly beautiful. Climbing over some rocks to get close to the waterfall was exciting and really worthwhile. An inspiring place transmitting well being. Xx

The last stretch to see it is somewhat difficult because of the snow but it is beautiful, seeing it from afar and then having it so close. The beginning is also hard, all climbing through beech forests.
