This path right by the river is special as you find yourself on some old man made construction.

Beautiful waterfall with a nice place to swin or do a picnic right bellow the waterfall. There's a tunnel under it that can be used to go across the river. You can easily cross it pushing your bike.

the fall forms a sort of beach, stay alert in the event of rising water (possible opening of the dam)
