This route is shaded, making it ideal on hot days! It is suitable for children, who will enjoy playing in the water afterwards.
When you start the hike after the bridge over the Porto River, you will see signs indicating that the route is closed due to bad weather. These signs are old and there is no problem until the bridge. Apparently, there are landslides on the path after the Zaglia bridge towards Evisa.
