    It is an emblematic place with a spectacular waterfall from the mountain.

    Now it usually carries less water but you can see the fall of the water from the heights.

    It has several wells that carry the liquid element to inhabited places, since it seems to be an area with several springs.

      The quartzite framework that forms the mountainous structure of Despeñaperros has suffered great tectonic pressure throughout its geological life. In some places, the strata of the land show enormous vertical precipices and rugged cuts where beautiful waterfalls and waterfalls arise in the rainy season, such as the Salto del Fraile, a natural corner with curious water intakes of whitewashed walls that give a picturesque touch. to the place.

        It is as spectacular as it is hidden, since nothing suggests that in the surroundings, due to the vegetation or the orography, such a place could exist.

        It is a delight of nature that is well worth knowing.
