Rebollo de las Umbrías de Barrachina

In order to access it, you would have to take a path that goes from the village to the river at the same entrance to Barrachina. The river must be crossed by taking a quite deteriorated walkway and continue 300 hundred metres, then at the turn of a bend on the stream bed, you will finally find the “Rebollico de las Umbrías”. The exact place of the Pyrenean oak can be determined by the coordinates UTM 30 T 6562214528409.
