The Cela Cavalos Waterfall is located in the village of Cabril, which belongs to the municipality of Montalegre. This area is situated in a mountainous territory, in the northern interior of Portugal, characterized by robust natural landscapes.
Its geographical position provides a mountain setting, where the presence of water is a striking element, shaping the local orography and vegetation over time.
The waterfall originates from the confluence of the Cavadas and Cela Cavalos streams. The waters of these courses, flowing down the mountain slopes, converge at a point where they plunge, forming falls that stand out in the landscape. The transparency and clarity of the waters are notable characteristics of this location.
The way the water plunges may vary slightly depending on the time of year, reflecting the natural cycles of water abundance in the region.
Visiting the Cela Cavalos Waterfall is to immerse oneself in a serene and tranquil natural environment. The constant sound of falling and flowing water creates a relaxing atmosphere, inviting pause and contemplation. The path to the waterfall, although accessible, may have wet or vegetated areas, requiring some attention during passage.
The site offers an opportunity to connect with nature, breathe the fresh mountain air, and observe the power of water which, over centuries, has sculpted the rocks and shaped the scenery that can be appreciated today.
