Piocas de cima, this one is the trickiest to get to due to the uncertain terrain you’ll have to climb down on to reach it, but, truth be said, just don’t run your way down and you’ll be perfectly fine; many people do this trail everyday and it doesn’t generate not even a tenth of the accidents that Gerês’s 7 lagoas does. All you have to do is leave your car at the Piocas de cima access point and travel your way down like in the picture below:
Once you get there, take a moment to appreciate the place, it’s quite amazing, or, if you’re feeling the heat you can jump right into the crystal clear water.
And if you’d just like to chill alone or with that special someone, or … someones in this case, you can enjoy the little natural “Jacuzzi” that nature created which is situated a bit upstream in the rocks before the big pool above.
