Charco de las Canales
Charco de las Canales is an artificial pond in Letur formed by water collected from local irrigation channels. The body of water provides a natural-looking swimming spot surrounded by the landscape of the region.
The pond resulted from irrigation infrastructure built to support local farming over generations. It has since transformed into a popular bathing spot for residents and visitors alike.
The spot is best visited during warm months when water levels are good and the area is actively used. Bring swimwear and water since this is a simple, natural location without facilities.
The water comes from historic irrigation channels that farmers have used for centuries, creating an unintended swimming spot. This byproduct of a practical farming system has become a place where people now gather to cool off.
