If you want to do something a bit more adventurous. Truly stunning spot where you can do some swimming / canyoning or picnic. Bit difficult to find and on an unmade up road but well worth it. Follow directions to the spot on the map but stop when you get to a tunnel just before. Park on the right by the big tree and walk down the path on the right to the river. Fantastic on really hot days. Takes about 30 to 40 minutes all in from the villa. Eat at Casa Babel after.
