Be careful on rainy days

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/

A waterfall known as the "first spring of the Bejarano," whose water flow has always been active. There are few remains of an ancient structure from which the water flows: the aquifer catchment. The Romans knew how to harness this important spring, unique in these mountains, due to the large amount of water it provides every season (estimated at 20,000 to 35,000 m3/day).

A closed gate prevents you from continuing along this route.

Beautiful route in a quiet area. Fine restaurant with all kinds of Spanish dishes.

This reservoir is located in the municipality of Espiel. Built in the years 1956-1973. Its function apart from water supply is also to generate electricity, it is a place to do water sports, bathing or fishing.

Don't let illegal wells kill this place

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.
