Waterways
Valle del Jerte is the valley of water. The union between valley and river is such that they even came to share the same name. The river was born at the top of the valley next to Tornavacas Port; humble origins for a true force of nature that sustains the life of this district. The valley and river cannot be understood without the network of creeks and ravines that feed them, forming a water system of transparent blood that circulates the valley below looking for a path between imposing rock walls. This millennia old struggle has formed a network of intricate labyrinths that hide a handful of unique geographic spaces: the ravines of Valle del Jerte, true geological and environmental treasures. To approach this path of water and rock is to approach the very heart and history of this valley at the foot of the Gredos sierra; a journey that leads us to corners where natural beauty is shown in all its splendour.
Rebollar
Back in the day it was called La Furia ravine, which gives us an idea as to how its lively waterfalls and creeks tumble down during periods of rain and thaws. This little known and visited spot offers us a multitude of corners with pools of crystal clear water and small dreamy waterfalls, gallery forest vegetation and panoramic views of the valley. It can be accessed from a lay-by on the motorway linking the localities of Rebollar and El Torno. If you want a more extensive tour, you can take trail PR- CC 8 (Labradillo Creek-La Puria Ravine) from the same relaxation area. 9 km long circular route that starts and ends in El Torno.
