Piscinas Naturales Navaluenga

The natural pools of Navaluenga form in the Alberche River through temporary dikes that create shallow swimming areas surrounded by rocky formations and native vegetation within the Sierra de Gredos region.

The 16th-century Romanesque bridge overlooking the natural pools was built in granite with four semicircular arches to facilitate livestock passage and connect different parts of the village throughout centuries.

These natural pools serve as a traditional family leisure space where local residents and visitors gather during summer months to enjoy picnics and swimming in a preserved natural setting.

Access to the pools is via the AV-902 road with free parking available near the river, and the site features showers and metal stairs to facilitate entry into the water.

Navaluenga's natural pools combine dark waters rich in plant sediments with a sandy bottom scattered with rounded pebbles, creating a distinctive aquatic environment just 110 kilometers from Madrid.
