[GAL] Nas montañas do Courel podemos atopar moitos saltos de auga se percorremos as ribeiras dos seus ríos e regueiros.
A Fervenza do Pombar é unha das máis espectaculares da zona: o río Quiroga precipítase uns 15 metros e cae nunha poza de augas cristalinas rodeada de exuberante vexetación.
O acceso está sinalizado dende a carretera que une Quiroga e Seara, onde poño o punto de aparcamento, e descurre por un sendeiro sempre descendende entre castiñeiros (preparádevos para a subida de volta...). Os últimos 150 metros poden complicarse nos días en que estea o chan mollado pois hai que andar entre grandes pedras trepando e destrepando.
[EN] In the Courel mountains we can find many waterfalls if we walk along the banks of its rivers and streams.
The Pombar Waterfall is one of the most spectacular in the area: the Quiroga River plunges about 15 meters and falls into a pool of crystal clear water surrounded by exuberant vegetation.
The access is signposted from the road that connects Quiroga and Seara, where I put the parking point, and runs along a trail that always descends between chestnut trees (prepare for the climb back...). The last 150 meters can be complicated on days when the ground is wet because you have to walk between large stones, climbing and scrambling.
