ロハの天然記念物・トップ11

I was there mid november and the fountain was empty...

A colorful route with many beautiful areas. The 101 channels are truly breathtaking with so much water. The Rosario River is full of beauty with those spectacular waterfalls.

The Fuente de los Cien Caños is an impressive natural monument located in Villanueva del Trabuco, on the limestone slope of the Sierra de San Jorge. The fountain is known for being the source of the Guadalhorce River, the longest and most voluminous river in the province of Malaga.

The Zafarraya polje is a closed depression with a flat bottom, surrounded by limestone mountains that are strongly karstified. The waters of the polje are absorbed by several ponors (sinkholes), and during heavy rainfall the polje can be temporarily flooded. This makes it an interesting example of karst landscape and geological processes.

Birth of the Guadalhorce River

A natural water spring is the origin of this fantastic fountain that has 100 taps through which the water comes out, hence its name. It is a very popular place in the area and is located in a picturesque landscape.

This gigantic fountain channels the water that flows from the San Jorge mountain range, constituting the most important contribution of the Guadalhorce river in its initial section. Despite its name, the fountain actually has 101 spouts!

The Zafarraya field or plain is a spectacular "polje" formation, a depression of karstic origin, which with an extension of ten square kilometers is one of the largest in the Iberian Peninsula. Cycling around here is really interesting.
