Las Fuentes (Huerta del Marquesado)

Las Fuentes, north-west of Huerta del Marquesado, is a site where numerous springs emerge, their water joining the River Laguna a short distance away. It has shaded tables beside the stream and is crossed by the PR-CU 38, the Arroyos trail, which then continues through a limestone gorge.

  • PR-CU 38

The PR-CU 38, a PR (short-distance trail), leaves Huerta del Marquesado via Fuente de la Teja and follows the irrigation channel north-west to a small weir diverting water from the River de las Fuentes. Very close by, at Las Fuentes, numerous springs emerge and soon join the River Laguna. This is the municipality’s area of major springs: limestone hills absorb rain and release it below.

There are shaded tables beside the stream. Beyond the site, the trail enters a gorge and climbs among lime kilns.
