After the rainy season is the best time to visit this place, since in times of drought it is difficult to see water. It can be accessed from Peralvillo or from Fernán Caballero and moving towards the south you can see the ruins of an old bridge. It can be accessed both by bicycle and on foot along a well-marked and fairly wide path, with some ups and downs and sections full of stones, but it is not difficult. Very nice place to take photos, both in the morning and at sunset.

A beautiful area to enjoy nature, with the Congosto lagoon, bathed by the Bañuelos River in the background.
