Story:
During our visit to the northern region of Spain, I decided to add a visit to the Cascada de Boltaña waterfall towards the end of our trip. The satellite directions indicated a very long drive, but I trusted my instincts and drove towards the town of Boltaña, believing the route should be shorter.
Upon arrival, I discovered that the name Cascada de Boltaña referred to two waterfalls: Pózas de San Martín and Cascada del Confesionario. The road leading to them was narrow, and while there were clear signs at the beginning, they soon disappeared. With no internet signal to verify our location, we continued on until we found a parking area with a small sign pointing to a trail. We had no idea how long the trail would be.
The first challenge was crossing a small creek by stepping over large rocks. After walking about a kilometer, we reached Pózas de San Martín, which translates to "pools." Unfortunately, these pools had very little water flowing through them, which was disappointing. I took a few photos before deciding to continue to the second waterfall. However, the trail became very slippery due to the clay formation, which gave the ground a yellow/orange color. Although I noticed water pipes along the side of the trail, potentially reducing the water volume, the uncertainty about finding a significant waterfall led me to decide to turn back.
