From the Gorg Blau, the reservoir located 137 meters lower, the water is first pumped 156 meters up, then flows through an approximately 5.6-kilometer-long open canal into the Cúber reservoir. From there, the water flows through a 10,984-meter-long pipe with a diameter of 50 to 70 centimeters, dropping 559 meters into the valley below to the treatment plant in Lloseta. From there, it descends another 29 kilometers toward Palma to the central drinking water depot in Son Anglada. The reservoirs supply an average of 20 percent of the island's capital's drinking water needs (Mallorca Magazine).
