Las Pilas River

Highlight • River

You can bathe here and refresh yourself. There is also a bar open in the summer. The road after the bridge is a dirt road, I climbed it with my roadbike with full bikepacking gear, and didn't lose traction when the road was dry. After about 1-1.5 km, you will reach a paved road that you can take to the left to go to Cuacos de Yuste.
