🌿✨ Nacimiento Río Castril: This beautiful journey takes you alongside the Castril River to its source, right in the heart of the Sierra de Castril Natural Park. 🌳🏞️

🔹 Trail Details: The route mostly follows the river's course until its origin. It’s an easy hike, approximately 2.1 km long, taking about 1 hour to complete. This allows you to discover the river's clean waters, bordered by willows, ashes, and poplars. 🍃💧

🔹 Natural Beauty: The river is fed by numerous streams that carve deep and majestic gorges, ending in narrow canyons. 🏞️🌊

🔹 Wildlife: Along the way, you can observe a multitude of birds flying above. The riverbanks are home to otters and the waters are ideal for trout. 🦦🐦🎣

🔹 Geological Wonders: Appreciate the ever-suggestive shapes carved into the limestone rock. 🪨✨
