This natural pool, created by the old bed of the Guadalquivir river, is located in the Sierra de las Villas. It is a small oasis in which we find a pool of water with an overflow, a beach bar to have a drink, an area for barbecues, rest areas and even a stone area to jump into the water.

They say that its name comes from the fact that a donkey loaded with oil skins fell into the puddle, staining it with the contents of its load.

It is possible to go hiking in the surroundings through short routes along the path that runs parallel to the river. Some 200m downstream on the left bank is the mouth of the Tranco reservoir drainage tunnel, where the water comes out turbulently.
