In this video, we take you on a journey through the impressive landscapes of the Baixa Limia-Serra do Xurés Natural Park, visiting three magical places, first of all the Fervenza Pozo da Seima, this impressive waterfall of the Salas River jumps a large rock wall of about 15 meters high. To get to the Pozo da Seima fervenza, it can be done from two places, one from the San Rosendo recreational area, located at km. 13 of the OU-1206 highway, and another along a road that starts from the village A Cela. From there we jumped to the remains of the Roman mansion Aquis Ogeresibus located at mile 39 of Vía Nova or Vía XVIII that connects Braga with Astorga, the place was probably chosen because thermal waters emanated right there, highly appreciated by the Romans. To finish the visit to the Park (not the route) we continued walking for a few minutes along the via nova until we reached the impressive Corgá da Date. It is a seasonal stream that in the rainiest seasons gives rise to this imposing waterfall through which the waters descend and are later incorporated to form the Caldo River. With its nearly 250 m drop, this is the highest waterfall in all of Galicia.The name of this place comes from two Galician words: the term corga refers to a river course formed by the union of small streams, while date refers to the small amount of water that forms the small river channel.Back home, as we had plenty of time, we decided to take advantage of what was left of the day and approached the well known as Pozo Caído, between the parishes of Venceáns de Entrimo and Grou de Lobios, the Pacín River forms a beautiful pool where the waters rush. in the form of a little fervency. To admire this hidden corner, they have set up a wooden walkway and a table forming a viewpoint over the river. To get there, we walked the Pacín River path upstream from the river pools of As Perdices, although there are different alternatives to get there.
