ギル・ガルシアの湖・トップ5

the water is super cold even in summer!!!

Located in the charming and quiet town of Guijo de Santa Bárbara, Charco del Trabuquete is a simple, although somewhat demanding, route that runs through the Jaranda Gorge. A route dotted with cliffs and cliffs through which streams and river gorges with crystal-clear waters flow. It is undoubtedly a natural environment of great beauty nestled between the Sierra de Gredos and the Sierra de Tormantos.

This lagoon is curious with respect to the rest since normally, glacial cirques tend to take a direction perpendicular to the ridge of the mountain, that is to say they descend in a north or south direction. This one, however, does it in an east direction, with the Covacha del Losar as the highest part!

Following the well-known Route of the Trabuquete you will find this wonderful pool with a natural waterfall on the river Garganta de Jaranda. Undoubtedly the highlight of the route, not only for its turquoise waters but also for the beautiful landscape that surrounds it.

The descent to the Barco lagoon follows a rough and delicate terrain through the Cuadrada lagoon to the shore of the great mountain lake where the Galín Gómez gorge begins. On the wall of the lagoon there is a mountain refuge and the short-distance path PR-AV 36 begins, which descends to the right of the glacial basin. The layout of the path improves immediately, especially when it reaches the terrain of the mountain pastures. At the Chozo de Anselmo de Las Escaleruelas you have to leave the short-distance trail, which follows the main lane to the left, and continue straight down towards the valley basin along a hillside complicated by vegetation. The path first passes over two ditches and a couple of bridges and then crosses the main stream of the valley, descending from the high peaks along the right bank of the gorge. The layout is imprecise at first and sometimes they get lost in the grassy fields.

The Laguna de los Caballeros is a lagoon of glacial origin located in the upper part of the gorge of the same name, in the western sector of the Sierra de Gredos, in the municipality of Navalonguilla, (Ávila, Castilla y León, Spain). The lagoon is located at an altitude of about 2,000 meters above sea level in an extensive glacial valley (one of the three located on the north face of La Covacha).1 La Covacha, with a height of 2,399 meters above sea level, constitutes the highest point in the western sector. of the Sierra de Gredos.2​n. 1 Unlike the rest of the lagoons in the region, the Caballeros lagoon has not been artificially dammed.

The Laguna de la Nava, also known as the Nava del Barco lagoon, is a lagoon of glacial origin located in the upper part of the gorge of the same name, in the western sector of the Sierra de Gredos; It is located in the municipality of Nava del Barco, in the province of Ávila (Castilla y León, Spain). The lagoon is located at an altitude of about 1,950 meters above sea level at the bottom of a glacial cirque known as the Corral del Diablo.1 Presiding over this glacial cirque is the Alto del Corral del Diablo, with 2,366 meters above sea level.

El Charco del Trabuquete is one of the most beautiful and frequented natural pools in Valle de la Vera. The fact that you have to walk about 3 km to get to the pool means that it is not as crowded as other pools in the area.
