Belabarze waterfall

Description

The Belabarze Waterfall is a mountain waterfall located in the Roncal Valley, in the municipality of Roncal/Erronkari, in Navarra. Its usual access is from Isaba by a circular path of about 10 kilometers, of moderate difficulty, which runs through a Pyrenean landscape of rugged terrain, rainforest and stretches of mountain riverside. The waterfall is part of a well-known itinerary in the valley and is usually associated with the Ibón Cave, another point of interest along the same route. The most valuable part of the visit is the contrast between the forest path and the moment when the water appears embedded between rocky walls and dense vegetation. The environment stands out for the beech and fir trees, very present in this area of the Navarre Pyrenees, and for the fresh and humid character of the place, which explains the presence of an attractive waterfall in times of flow. The interest of the resource is both scenic and excursionist: it allows to know one of the most accessible and photogenic corners of the valley, with a signposted route that concentrates several elements of natural interest. The Roncal Valley is also a territory of great environmental richness and has numerous figures of protection, which reinforces the value of this waterfall within the whole of the Navarrese Pyrenean area.
