Visto il meteo, Marco ha modificato in corsa l'itinerario. Niente Argentea, ma un suggestivo trekking da Pratorotondo lungo l'Alta Via dei Monti Liguri e poi verso le zone umide di Piampaludo. Nonostante la nebbia, le fioriture #Beigua hanno dato spettacolo! #EGNWEEK2021

🏞El Forat de l'Or, molt conegut, al Congost de Terradets, és l'exemple que hem escollit com a surgència càrstica. #EGNWeek2021 💦Té uns 2.193 m de recorregut, part d'aquest són galeries inundades, que s'han descobert mitjançant tècniques d'immersió. #IYCK #GeoparcOrigens

Poço da Broca da Barriosa, Seia The cristal waters that flow down the mountain are one of the most peculiar characteristics of Estrela, giving a unique character to its landscape and to the ways of life that, on its margins, have built traces of its culture!
