Los Pilones, Garganta de los Infiernos
Trail · Spain
A gorge above the Jerte Valley, on the southern flank of the Gredos massif, where a mountain stream has scoured a chain of smooth granite pools known as Los Pilones. Chestnut woods crowding the ravine turn brown-gold by late October, timed with the chestnut-roasting Calbotá festivals held in valley towns like Hervás.
