Arriving at the camping and picnic site in the valley of El Clarillo
El Clarillo is a valley which takes its name from the clear spring river which runs through it and joins the red Morado river in a spectacular clash of water colours and rocky waterfalls at the edge of the valley. It is a heavenly spot, ideal for the picnic lunch which goes with the ride, and approached by crossing a river and passing a small lake where the brave can bathe. It is also the valley where we camp on longer expeditions as it has good grazing for the horses who are let loose to graze at night, a multitude of flowers in January and is secluded between huge rocky mountains which keep it almost a secret from the rest of the world.
