Del Agrio Cascade

Santiago Gaudio

    You must leave from Caviahue or Copahue by car

    and take Provincial Route Nº 27. In the crrossroad you must turn to

    Cañadón del Trolope.

    Araucarias stand out amid the red tones of the mountains.


    You must drive on for some 15 km. along which you will see

    several waterfalls as the prologue to the forecoming one.


    The vision is spectacular. You must park your car and

    get closer carefully. There are verandas. There is a wonderful scenario.

    That is the biggest one, called Gigante, an impressing 60 m. waterfall

    that bursts into vapor with a shocking sound

    with a beautiful polichromy produced by the effects of the sun light

    over the dew.

    From here you will see the Volcano

    at the background, while the vegetation

    covers the whole place.

    The waters fall into a natural pool

    with walls formed by basaltic columns

    typical of the volcanic process that

    formed the region.
