Pozo Airón, Waterfall in Pereña de la Ribera, Spain
Located at 480 meters elevation in Arribes del Duero Natural Park, Pozo Airón features three cascades falling 50 meters into a deep canyon between Salamanca and Zamora provinces.
Near the waterfall stands the Molino de la Culebra mill from the 18th century, representing the agricultural and milling activities that sustained local communities.
The name Pozo Airón refers to the mist formation when water plunges into the gorge, creating a smoke-like effect visible from surrounding viewpoints.
Two hiking paths provide access to the waterfall from Masueco and Pereña de la Ribera, with autumn offering increased water flow due to seasonal rainfall.
The waterfall flows through Arroyo de los Cuernos stream within a Mediterranean microclimate zone, supporting olive trees, almez, junipers, and rockroses.
