Fuente del Berro Recreational Area

Fuente del Berro Recreational Area

Located at banks of the Taguson the road that we found at the height of the Poveda bridgeThe Fuente del Berro recreational area is an ideal place to spend the day with family or friends in the shade of the poplars.

It is possible to dive in the nearby pools, but only with authorised companies.

<< How to get there?

To gain access, we must approach the bridge that we find on the CM-210 on the outskirts of the town of Poveda de la Sierraaddress to Taravilla. It is an area easy to find and easy to access, once on the bridge itself, we will see that there is a dirt track that at first runs parallel to it, that is our path, shortly after continuing along it, we will find our area on the left hand side and a large car park where we can leave our vehicle that allows access to all types of public.

<< Equipment

As soon as you arrive, you will see that it is one of the best areas, in terms of space, access, equipment... It has numerous tables spread over a good area of shadowall very well delimited. In addition, next to this area, there is the El Berro camp, under authorisation we could camp in one of the most popular places for locals and visitors alike.

The campsite has all kinds of infrastructures, such as a picnic area, barbecues and a fountain located on the banks of the river itself, as well as a shelter, which is currently closed due to the deterioration of its roof.

<< What to do?

We must say that we recommend summer for all kinds of activities, our first encounter with this area was in winter, with freezing temperatures, but in summer, thanks to the density of the poplar grove that surrounds it, it becomes an area of crystal clear waters where you can enjoy swimming in the river, where you can rest under a good shade and, of course, where you can get close to some of the most picturesque and visited places in the Alto Tajo Natural Park, such as the Poveda waterfallThe waterfall, an old dam, collapsed to form an eye-catching waterfall.

It is also very close to the Taravilla LagoonThe area is also close to another bathing area next to the footbridge of the river Tajo. Furthermore, we cannot forget that the recreational area of Fuente del Berro is one of the best areas for canoeists and canoeists. water sports enthusiasts, as well as hikers, walkers and fishermen.

Finally, it should be noted that the Natural Park and the Fuente del Berro recreational area do not have a rubbish collection service or places to leave rubbish, so we must respect where we pass through and pick up what does not belong to the mountain. In the neighbouring towns, there are many containers, please, always take the rubbish back.
