A beautiful waterfall. The experience is worth it: there are picnic tables and restaurants nearby. Access to the "area" costs €3 as of July 2025. With this ticket, you have access to the entire riverbank. It's recommended to wear a swimsuit, since to access the area, you have to cross the (very cold) river. There are restrooms that can be used as changing rooms before crossing the river. Once you've crossed, you can settle down wherever you like and take a dip. At the first corner of the river, you can jump from a safe rock. A place for teenagers. You can go upstream as far as you want.

The Charterhouse of Our Lady of the Fountains, also known as the Charterhouse of Monegros, is a former monastery located in the municipality of Sariñena, in the region of Monegros, province of Huesca, Aragon. Founded in 1507 by the Counts of Sástago, Beatriz de Luna, and Blasco de Aragón, it is the first Charterhouse built in the Kingdom of Aragon. The current monastery, built in the 18th century, is an impressive architectural complex in the late Baroque style. It is notable for its mural paintings by Friar Manuel Bayeu, Goya's brother-in-law, depicting scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary, women of the Old Testament, and the cardinal virtues.

A very nice route with spectacular surroundings, which can be accompanied by a canyon ride through the area with an expert like me. Be careful, the beginning is through cross-country and crop fields, which if they are sown it is better not to go through, and you can go along the road or start with another car there.

Apiés is a small agricultural center just 10 kilometers from the city of Huesca. It is located between cereal fields and the Romanesque church of San Félix, from the 12th century, stands out. The town is very close to the Roldán waterfall and from its surroundings you can get a good view of these huge mallos.
