La Font Freda is a small recreational area next to a historic fountain, and a nearby viewpoint, which usually flows with fresh water even in the summer season. Its history, as we could read on the existing signage on site, is linked to the town, where in past centuries, the Marquises of Albaida and their subjects from Atzeneta and Carrícola claimed possession of the fountain, a lawsuit that gave it its name. to the nearby ravine called del Pleit -lawsuit-. The same recreational area where the Font Freda and the nearby viewpoint are located can be reached by bike or car along the forest track, making it a perfect plan for those who want to do a mountain bike route.

"La Cava Gran de Agres" is a historic snow storage facility that once served as a refrigerator for storing snow, which was later used as ice. In winter, snow was filled into the pit and compacted to be used as blocks of ice. The upper arches supported a roof that protected the snow from the sun. In summer, the stored snow was cut into blocks and transported to the cities by pack animals. Ice was of great importance at that time for preserving food and for medicinal purposes. The architecture of the Cava is characterized by massive stone walls and a domed roof, parts of which are now in ruins. The building is an important testament to the traditional methods of preservation and logistics in the region.

The refrigerator (snow pit) is currently fenced off due to maintenance work.
