A short walk through the wonderfully green forest leads to this pretty waterfall. It gurgles and splashes wonderfully. The Riu Ilde is relatively easy to cross at a slightly higher elevation, allowing you to get even closer to the waterfall.

Rest stop with fountain. The upper fountain, although recently renovated, is dry at the time of the highlight creation (10/2024). The tap immediately below works very well, and the water is fresh and drinkable. A path branches off above the fountain into the woods.

More than the castle, which is very beautiful, the 360° panoramic view is worth the ticket price.

The Goceano castle (also called Burgos castle) is a very suggestive place. From the top of a granite cliff the castle dominates the nearby village and the valley behind it. It's worth getting up here to enjoy the view.
