From the Aragonese village of Orós Bajo starts the path that leads to the D'Os Lucas ravine and waterfall, an impressive waterfall that you cannot miss if you visit the Tena Valley.
D'Os Lucas waterfall
The erosion that the water has exerted on the limestone rock makes this place a magical spot where in summer you can have a good swim.
The route is simple, just two kilometres with 150 metres of elevation gain (one way). Caution should be taken in times of heavy rain, it is not advisable to do the route.
Orós Bajo waterfall
We leave the village of Orós Bajo following the signs to the Orós Bajo waterfall. In the car park there is a shaded area with a fountain and a changing room.
The Orós Bajo waterfall is a dam to contain the water coming upstream. It is suitable for bathing.

We continue along the upper part, always parallel to the river on its left bank, and in about 20 minutes we reach the spectacular D'Os Lucas waterfall where you can bathe in the summer season. Wonderful.

Don't forget to visit the village of Orós Bajo, where the 11th century church of Santa Eulalia stands out.
Santa Eulalia church
A marvellous example of late Romanesque art in Alto Gallego that forms part of the Serralbo churches. In the village there is a very nice man who shows it to you.
