가장 멋진 알모도바르 델 리오 주변 자연유산 8곳

Located on the Caño Escaravita estate, just beyond the outlying neighborhood of Santa María de Trassierra. We found it in the western Sierra peri-urban district, next to the crossroads leading to the Ermitas and the Mirador de las Niñas, about fifteen kilometers from Córdoba. This is a zoomorphic water fountain on a pedestal from the Caliphate period, dating back to the 10th century. The sculpture represents a small elephant. Made of gray limestone from the Sierra Morena, it served as a support for the spout. The fountain is made up of three components: a water collection basin, a masonry pillar attached to it on its north side (which leads to a masonry irrigation ditch), and a rectangular pool located to the west of the canal. https://amedinacordoba.com/fuente-del-elefante/

The Baths of Poppaea are a natural stretch of small waterfalls alternating with small pools that follow the course of the Molino stream, near the mouth of the Guadiato River. This area was visited by Christopher Columbus. Its name comes from the place where the Cordoba poets of the Cántico Group used to visit, as during the Franco regime it was a safe place, away from the scrutiny of this intellectual group, as well as the homosexuality of some of them. One day, three members of the group, Pablo García Baena, Juan Bernier, and Ricardo Molina, were walking when they saw some girls bathing in the stream. The latter exclaimed, "Look, like Poppaea in the bath," referring to the Roman Empress Poppaea Sabina, a prominent figure at the time due to the film The Sign of the Cross (1932), in which actress Claudette Colbert appeared bathing in donkey's milk, just as the Empress did. The girls told the residents of Trassierra about this incident, and from then on, the story spread and became known as the Baths of Poppea. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ba%C3%B1os_de_Popea

Oak trees grow here whose bark is made of cork. On one oak tree, bark was left on the tree so that you can see how it grows back.

Please note that this highlight is also listed in the description as a parking spot. However, we found that it is not allowed to drive up to the indicated parking spot/start of the route with a car. Just park near the jardin de popea and start the hike from there, it will add 2.5 km to the distance but is not too bad.

The fountain has three large pylons and two smaller ones, which look more modern. Perhaps that is why it is known in some references as the Fountain of the Five Pylons and in others as the Fountain of the Three Pylons.

Non-bicyclable place. Very narrow path with a lot of vegetation, fallen trees... Better to walk. Beautiful setting next to the Arroyo Bejarano with the caves.

Motif place of the Cordovan sierra. It is a waterfall that unfortunately is dry right now. You have to get off the path to get to it. The path is narrow and ends in the Guadiato. Accessing the waterfall with a bike is impractical, but even the river can be done more or less.
