Tips

Juano Mesas 🚴‍♂️🎼👨‍🎓✍️

It is really difficult to locate the source of the most important river in Andalusia and although the technicians have located it at this point, it is still surprising that it hardly has any water, as well as that it is exactly this precise place, because in the same way It could have been located in any other of the many tributaries with greater flow that pour their waters into the river bed, such as the Aguasmulas River or the Borosa River.
For whatever reason, this source is dry for much of the year, but nevertheless it has better access than other places, perhaps this is the explanation.
