    Reservoir fed by the waters of the Grande de Adra river that descends from Sierra Nevada. The name of the reservoir is due to the fact that it was built on the town of Beninar, which has been left under its waters. The area is surrounded by mountains and rich vegetation, offers a spectacular view of nature.
