GORGES DE PIRINCANES

Natural site to discover

This rather wild gorge was carved out of pink porphyry by the Rio 'e Forru, which flows along the bottom. It is here that pools of crystal-clear water have formed, as well as the so-called "giant's potholes", i.e. basins carved out of the living rock by all the little waterfalls that dot the area.
