Barchel Suspension Bridge and Waterfall

We return to the path until we reach Bercuta, where we take a detour that will take us through thick pine forests to the Turia River and the spectacular wooden suspension bridge that leads us to the path next to the waterfall and Barchel cave, a wetland area included in the catalog of Valencian Community wetlands.
