솟 드 페레르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 호수

Water outcrop in an old quarry.

If you go into the Natural Park, you can reach these pools or lagoons that have been included in the catalogue of Protected Natural Areas for their great environmental and landscape value. The complex includes four bodies of water, the Butrera, Rosa, Gabacho and Portillo lagoons. Its origin is due to the action of man, who dug in this area in search of clayey material, and it is fed by rainwater that ends up here through runoff.

It was built in the 12th century by the Muslims who inhabited the region. Its original purpose was to retain the waters of the ravine of the same name and then use them to irrigate the fields downstream. This route is ideal for hiking lovers and offers a variety of landscapes and experiences. I hope you enjoy exploring the Ajuez Reservoir and its surroundings! 🌿🏞️

Ernbalse de Ajuez Unfortunately, the reservoir is almost dry and things are slowly getting tight for the fish and turtles. The Chóvar Reservoir, as it is also called, is part of an ancient local irrigation system built to retain the rushing water from the eponymous gorge. The place name is derived from Arabic, the meaning of which means “common pastureland” and indicates the importance of agriculture and livestock breeding in the region. Due to its capacity of 30,000 m³ and the lack of water sources in the nature park, it is of great value for the fauna. It is currently included in the catalog of wetlands of the Valencian Community

Also known as the Balsa de Chovar, the reservoir is a very quiet place surrounded by a natural environment just a few meters from the town of Chovar. An ideal place to escape with the family and have a nice time there.

The route is very beautiful. We can park in the town of Chóvar and start walking from there. The route can be made longer or shorter, as it suits us, if we decide to get to the fridge or not.
