カルチェレスの天然記念物・トップ4

This name is from an ancient spring that has supplied water to the town of Montejícar since the dawn of time. When homes lacked a supply of drinking water, residents came to this point to bring water to their homes since ancient times. Nowadays, homes have drinking water and the municipality has carried out water surveys near the spring so that its visible flow has decreased considerably because the drilling was carried out at a water table lower than the normal spring flow, in addition to the fact that rainfall has recently decreased considerably.

Birth from water to floods.

It is a large spring that flows into a large pond that is now prohibited for bathing, where several pairs of ducks live and enjoy the peace and tranquility. The flow, despite the drought, is impressive.

It is a centenary Elm or Poplar in the same square as the Cambil Town Hall, whose development is surprising due to the enormous dimensions that this specimen of tree has reached.

La Charca park is a great stop on a hot summer day. The pond and the irrigation system and the importance of this spring are collected in the Chronicles of Constable Iranzo which, already in the year 1469, mention the Old Fountain and the irrigation of the Huertas de Pegalajar.

Peak where the municipalities of Pegalajar, Mancha Real and Torres meet, and from which there are spectacular views of the Bercho shade, one of the steepest and wildest areas in the municipality of Pegalajar. We can also enjoy incredible views of the Sierra de Jaén.

Nice fountain with waterfall. Very rich and fresh water. Although there is a sign of non-potable water to save the maintenance, it has been drunk since time immemorial by all the residents of Montejicar, and its quality is greatly appreciated.
