Description
Aguallueve is a spring and natural site in Anento, in the region of Campo de Daroca (Zaragoza), located in a small limestone valley at the foot of the village. It is a karst formation in which several springs, fed by aquifers, ooze continuously over rock and moss, modeling a wet front with small caves and caves and creating a very unique landscape in the interior of Aragon. The most characteristic feature is the constant dripping of water, which gives the place its name and produces the sensation that the rock "cries". The environment is crossed on foot by paths and marked trails, among poplars, pines, blackberries and other species of riparian and scrubland. In winter, when the temperature drops, the drops can freeze and form ice stalactites, one of the most striking features of the enclave. The water is collected in a pond for irrigation of fields and orchards, so bathing is prohibited. Its main interest is scenic and geological, due to the karstic relief and the combination of water, stone and vegetation, in a very visited area due to its rarity and proximity to the historic center of Anento. It is also highlighted in guidebooks and travel media as one of the best known natural resources of the municipality.
