Itinerary description
An easy hike along the canal of rio cares, from Ponchebos to Cain and back.
The wide trail goes above the gorge with nice views down to the river, around the gorge walls and up the surrounding mountains. A few bridges (near Cain) offer wider view of the river. There is one short section in a wet tunnel inside the mountain.
If you are starting in Cain and I would turn back at "Los Collados" before the descent, as you've seen already the nicer sections.
~24km (there & back), 6hours.
