エストレマドゥーラのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

From the Proserpina Reservoir viewpoint, you can enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of this ancient Roman reservoir: the stone wall stretches out in front of you, with its stepped buttresses and incredible views. On clear days, you can see the gentle undulations of the Sierra de Carija in the background.

The Jerte River rises in the Gredos mountain range and flows through the impressive valley of the same name in northern Extremadura. Along its way, it feeds gorges, natural pools, and lush forests, becoming a true oasis, especially in spring, when cherry blossoms cover the landscape.

A waterfall reminiscent of a mantle. Very close to Los Pilones

The Proserpina Reservoir is an ancient Roman dam located about 5 kilometers north of Mérida, in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura. Built in the 1st century BC, this reservoir is one of the oldest in Spain and has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The Proserpina Reservoir is a fascinating place both for its history and for its natural beauty.

The information value of the photos is zero! OK, there is water, but what are the paths like, their condition, etc.

About five kilometres to the northwest of the city is this Roman reservoir, in the same place where the famous Battle of Albuera took place. It was in this battle that Isabel la Católica decided the dispute over the throne of Castile between her and Juana “la Beltraneja”.

I recommend bringing binoculars, otherwise the waterfall goes a little unnoticed

The castle was built under Moorish rule.
