Piscina Natural Rivera de Acebo, Natural pool in Acebo, Sierra de Gata, Extremadura, Spain.

El Jevero features crystal-clear freshwater contained within a natural rock depression formed by geological processes over thousands of years, surrounded by steep stone walls and Mediterranean vegetation typical of the Sierra de Gata region.

The natural pool has been used by local rural communities for centuries as a recreational space and water source, representing part of the traditional water management practices in Extremadura's mountainous regions.

Local residents and visitors gather at El Jevero during summer months to swim and socialize, making it a community meeting point that symbolizes the preservation of natural heritage in Sierra de Gata.

Access to the natural pool requires walking along marked trails in Sierra de Gata, with no permanent facilities available, so visitors should bring water, food, and sun protection for their stay.

The pool maintains its pristine waters year-round despite being freely accessible, serving as a symbol of community resilience and environmental preservation following recent forest fires in the area.
