Quiet reservoir, wide natural views
Unnamed Road, 10990, Alcántara
Been here?
A wild spot beside the José Maria Oriol-Alcántara reservoir, with several quiet, isolated places and access suitable for all vehicles. The surroundings offer wide views, natural pools, birds, circling vultures and grazing cows. It is exceptionally quiet, with no other significant noise, although power lines are visible on the horizon. There are no services, but older reports mention strong mobile reception and an easy gravel road.

Next to a dam (José María Oriol-Alcántara reservoir), and there are the natural pools of La Cantara. Several quiet, isolated spots. Really great. Easy access for all vehicles.Translating
It seems like the end of the world, but unfortunately there are power lines on the horizon.Translating
Just arrived having tried the quarry first. This place is heaven. Birds singing, bees buzzing and no other noise at all.
A dream! Easy to reach and with an absolutely fantastic view. Occasionally a local with a dog! No litter, etc. If you stay here, please make sure it remains this clean and beautiful!Translating
If I could give this place 6 stars, I would! Amazing area with many super cool spots, grifon vultures circling, cows roaming and amazing views.
Easy access. Very quiet, with many bird sounds and curious cattle, and a wonderful starry sky. Please take all rubbish, including toilet paper, with you so that it stays beautiful.Translating

Great spot. Beautiful views and very quiet, extremely quiet. We enjoyed watching the vultures circling. Let’s all take good care of this place.Translating
Many spots along this road, flat clearings with a lake view, beautiful. Clean and quiet. No services but strong cell. Access by easy gravel road.
The comment is accurate. It is impossible to find a quieter place. Superb view. Please help preserve this place so everyone can enjoy it.Translating
Absolute silence and darkness, right in nature. Great for stargazing. We woke up in the middle of a peaceful herd of cows. Eagles circle in the sky. You cannot get more nature and silence than this.Translating
Tranquil, level, and very relaxing. We sat at sunset in our chairs, listening to cowbells in the distance. The pools further back are beautiful, and there are lots of birds and a few eagles. No problem to access with 6.4m van pulling a 2.5m trailer. There is one incline, but it's hard stone and a sports car with minimum clearance could easily drive up.
