This last stretch, which starts at the power station, is probably the most spectacular and also the hardest.
After a few steep climbs, on the left, a fall of more than 170 metres drops from the Picón del Haza. We recommend visiting in spring or during the thaw to enjoy it.
Climbing on, through constant zigzags, the Borosa runs over countless waterfalls. One of them, not visible from the path, forms a beautiful pool more than 15 metres deep.
The greatest wonder of the route awaits at the Salto de los Órganos: a beautiful waterfall of more than 60 metres that will leave an unforgettable picture in our memory.
Finally, after crossing the Picón del Haza through tunnels dug into the rock, we reach the Aguas Negras reservoir and the Valdeazores lagoon.

More about this place…

The last stretch of the Borosa route holds an unrivalled collection of breathtaking landscapes. We will see falls 170 metres high, waterfalls that form beautiful pools whose depth is hard to guess, and the impressive, emblematic Salto de los Órganos. To end the walk we can relax while taking in the dark tones of the Aguas Negras reservoir, in contrast with the turquoise of the water in the Valdeazores lagoon. A tremendous spectacle for the senses.
