The first point of interest, once we leave the village and walking the path of the stream of resting, is the Fulling-Mill that are in dilapidated full of moisture, moss, figs and a stream of water running down walls.
Inside the mill roots, stems, moss and plants are confused and mixed rupícolas in greenish exacerbated by the humidity of the site on which the stream passes repose. At some point you can even get wet from the old cao.
Another interesting place to cross is the source of Descansadero, beneath which runs the stream of the same name, and near the recreational area of \u200b\u200bthe Llanos del Campo.
