| ~19 km | by car from Chulilla |
| Tufa | a waterfall of limestone rock built up by the river itself |
| Natural Park | of Chera–Sot de Chera |
| Cave | behind the waterfall, with several openings |
The River Sot waterfall
The River Sot tumbles over a barrier of tufa, the rock that lime-rich water builds up over time. Behind the waterfall there is a small cave with several interconnected openings.
Step by step
- By car from Chulilla. Towards Sot de Chera; the final stretch is a cobbled forest track, not suitable for low cars.
- Park in the designated areas. Don’t leave your car on the track.
- Short walk to the waterfall. Along the banks of the River Sot.
Good to know
- Respect the park: don’t leave litter and don’t climb on the tufa: it’s fragile.
