Despeñalagua Waterfall
Highlight • Waterfall
The waterfall has a height of about 120 meters and flows throughout the year, especially during the thaw season. In winter, frost is often found, which adds a magical touch to the landscape. The route to visit the Chorreras de Despeñalagua is simple and suitable for the whole family. The path, approximately 4.5 km, offers spectacular views and allows you to explore the streets and buildings of Valverde de los Arroyos. Also, on the way to the town, you will pass through other charming black towns such as Palancares, Almiruete and Tamajón. Definitely a destination worth exploring! 😊

Highlight • Settlement
In a typical house on Escuelas street, the Valverde de los Arroyos Ethnological Museum is housed, where in addition to publicizing its architecture, cultural homage is paid to the area's textile activity.
The hermitage of the Virgen de Gracia is a slate construction from the 19th century that is due to two native missionaries from the Philippines.
