Ancient burial mound

The reservoir is surrounded by green hills and plantations, with the blue of the water contrasting with the green of the vegetation, forming a very beautiful sight.

It's impossible to miss this dam: the enormous stone and cement wall in the middle of the mountains invites you to stop for a moment and admire its grandeur. There's a path below, from where you can see the massive structure at river level, and you can also visit it from above, revealing sensational panoramas of the cliffs, the reservoir, and the surrounding greenery.

A wonderful swimming dam. It'll be packed full in the summer of 2025. Water, that is. Otherwise, very quiet. Pleasantly warm. The author tested it.

Nice walk, but intensive

Very spicy and take enough water
