Located near the town of Cuenca that shares its name, the dam was inaugurated in 1958. It stands 78.10 meters high and has a water storage capacity of 1,638 hm³ across an area of 8,194 hectares. Its waters flow through, among other towns, Buendía, Alcocer, Alcohujate, and Villalba del Rey. From the dam, one can access the route to the Hermitage of Our Lady of the Forsaken, a favorite spot well worth visiting.

This time we went down to the River through the Presa tunnel.

If you ever venture into this region, don't just cross the bridge, but also explore the natural beauty that surrounds the Guadiela River. 🌿🌊

Very practical to go from one side of the reservoir to the other.

The Embalse Dam and the entire area is very touristy, suitable for quiet hiking.

The castle of Zorita de los Canes stands on a hill on one of the banks of the Tagus River. It is a fortification of Arab origin built in the 9th century.

In the plain of the Arles river, between the Tagus and the Tajuña, the Villa Ducal de Pastrana welcomes us. Its multiple samples of artistic and cultural heritage have given it the title of Artistic Historical Site. Pastrana is enriched with figures and literary stories; Thus, its Carmelite convents were founded by Saint Teresa and Saint John of the Cross. Moratín later settled in the town for long periods of time and, closer to our days, Camilo José Cela immortalized it by portraying it in his Viaje a la Alcarria. The Plaza de la Hora is governed by the imposing Ducal Palace, in Renaissance style and with an abundance of Mannerist elements. Some wonderful coffered ceilings also designed by Alonso de Covarrubias, in Plateresque style, have been preserved. Likewise, the skirting boards of Toledo tiles in the Mudejar style stand out. It offers its visitors the opportunity to visit various museums and emblematic monuments of the town. DUCAL PALACE TAPESTRY MUSEUM SANTA TERESA V CENTENARY MUSEUM
