Molino de San Pedro Waterfall

The Cascada del Molino de San Pedro is a waterfall in the municipality of El Vallecillo, in the Sierra de Albarracín, very close to Albarracín, Teruel. It is formed in the course of the Cabriel River and takes its name from the old mill located next to the place, whose remains are still cited in local descriptions. The most common reference places it in an environment of small ravine and riparian vegetation, typical of the mountain landscapes and high bioclimatic transition of the Sierra de Albarracín. The main interest of the place is landscape: the waterfall, the lower pool and the humid environment create one of the most visited corners of the region for walking, photography and contemplation of the water. It is also a frequent bathing spot in summer, although the water is usually cold. The area is accessed by a short trail from the vicinity of El Vallecillo, which makes it attractive for a short visit without technical requirements. Its tourist relevance is linked to the natural image of the Sierra de Albarracín and to the ethnographic value of the old mill, which explains the place name. Various sources also frame it within the Cabriel Valley Biosphere Reserve, recognized by UNESCO in 2019, which reinforces its environmental interest and its integration into a territory of high ecological value.
