The restoration and proper care for this site would be a boon to biodiversity, as well as tourism. It could have easily become like its sister river near Alcanena, the Alviela spring. Instead, it's wrecked by a factory for toilet paper. An example of the costs for modern comforts and conveniences, in this case so people can wipe their behinds with soft paper. Is it worth it? Judge for yourself from the photos of circa 1900 how much 'progress' has brought us. At least the development goes back before stronger environmental regulation was in force, following on from historic mills (the ruins of which are still present). Now it would require a lot of money to restore the site, sadly. The trails above are worthwhile, with caves (all blocked for public access) also being in the area. Awesome place, mysterious and beautiful. So great to soak your feet in cool water after a long walk. A man-made waterfall at the source of the river which rises from cave systems. It was created for the paper mill factory that is partially abandoned! The company is not short of a few euros and should invest a bit more to attract more tourists though. It's a bit noisy as the factory besides it (Renova) has its machines working. But it's beautiful. Deep crystal clear water. Strange, spooky place .... I wouldn't recommend to put too much effort into visiting it. Great scenery though for a scarry movie! It's okay, the buildings aside are old and kinda feel abandoned which adds to the charm of the place. Urbex enjoyers will like this place. It's only a shame that it's gated, it's a public water spring and it shouldn't be monopolized by a factory. TLDR; It' kinda cool, worth it only if you're close and have the time. Beautiful nature ❤️❤️ Realy beatiful place. Maybe I'm first people to visit here as Japanese people!
