Portela do Homem waterfall, Natural waterfall in Peneda-Geres National Park, Portugal.
The Portela do Homem waterfall cascades down rocky formations, creating a natural pool of clear water at its base within the national park.
The waterfall stands as a natural monument in Portugal's first national park, which received official protected status designation in 1971.
Local residents maintain traditional agricultural practices near the waterfall, preserving methods that date back through many generations in the region.
Visitors can reach the waterfall via the N308-1 road in Campo do Geres, with dedicated parking areas and marked hiking trails leading to observation points.
The Man stream forms this waterfall by flowing over distinct rock formations, producing a natural cauldron where the waters gather beneath the cascade.
