The route leads you from the picturesque Historic Center of Letur into a natural setting dotted with refreshing swimming holes like Charco Pataco and Charco de Las Canales, perfect for a break. The highlight is the impressive Cascada del Arroyo de Letur (Letur Stream Waterfall), offering a visual and auditory spectacle. The path is a mix of well-defined trails and more natural sections, with vegetation that changes as you move away from the village.
To plan your visit, parking is usually available near Letur's historic center, which serves as the starting point for the route. It's advisable to start early to enjoy the tranquility and avoid the hottest hours, especially in summer. Carry enough water and wear comfortable, sturdy footwear, as the terrain can be uneven in some places.
