We recommend that you buy your ticket online. There are large lifts to descend to the gorges and places to eat. The water in the <strong>Alcantara River<\/strong> is very cold: you can rent rubber boots, but you can do without if you come in summer. Downstream, a small pebble beach awaits you where you can lie in the sun and cool off in the spray of the rapids. You can also trek in the upstream direction and enjoy the wonderful spectacle of the gorges. The bravest will dive in completely; the others will succumb involuntarily sooner or later!<\/p>\n<p>Five minutes from the entrance, <strong>we find is a free municipal access point<\/strong> from which we can explore the gorges from above (remaining dry). A botanical trail takes us through the park without going down to the river.<\/p>\n<p>You can also descend the Alcantara by <a
