Llahuar is a small hamlet located in the less touristic part of the canyon, the route is longer and a bit difficult, but the reward are the hot springs that you will find when you get there. Rustic accommodation located next to the river awaits to welcome us.

Fure is a small almost abandoned village, located 3 hours walk from Llahuar, the hike is spectacular and in the afternoon we can visit the waterfall of more than 60 meters located at 1 hour and a half from the village.

This hike is a very good option to get to know the canyon and to disconnect in nature.
