Canales Reservoir is located in the municipality of Güéjar Sierra. This reservoir, opened in 1988, is located on the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and is a key infrastructure for the region. Its main uses include water supply, irrigation and hydroelectric power generation. In addition, the reservoir area is popular for recreational activities such as fishing, water sports and swimming.

The trail is pretty easy to find until you get to the waterfalls. To reach Laguna Hondera you must climb up beside the first waterfall. That is between the two waterfalls. There are cairns on the path but it’s quite easy to miss them amongst the other routes up there. It’s a beautiful location. We saw a few ibex but only 2 other hikers!

The area of the Seven Lagoons (and Laguna Hondera in particular) is one of the most beautiful places in the Sierra Nevada National Park. The climb up here next to the waterfall formed by the Chorreras Negras is demanding, but all the pain in your legs is forgotten as soon as you reach the top and see the beauty of the place. Important note: if you plan to spend the night here, do not pitch your tent in the borreguiles (the grasslands). They are home to several species of flora endemic to the Sierra Nevada and it is necessary to protect them.

It is a very very easy route to do, but it is not very pretty. The whole route is quite abandoned and the views of the lagoon are almost better from the viewpoint of the bar on the road than from any part of the route. It has not been a rainy year and everything is dry, in addition to the amount of reeds during the tour, which prevent you from seeing the lagoon. To do it with children it is ideal, because they will not get tired, but for adults, quite boring...

The Mammoth Route starts from the town of Padul and starts along a path that borders the well-known Padul lagoon.

As a base camp for several tours (Veleta, Alcazaba and other surrounding 3000m), the Laguna Hondera (Siete Lagunas), a natural "campground" located at approx. 3000m, is warmly recommended. Sunset and sunrise are a dream from here. Accessible from Trevelez or Pradollano. In the morning, however, cattle can also frolic there.

Nearby at the waterfall, there are natural refuges
