Charco Azul de Chulilla

Nature · Chulilla, Los Serranos, Valencia

The Charco Azul de Chulilla, also called the azud del Salto, is a pool of turquoise water set into the Salto de Chulilla, the gorge that the Turia river has carved as it passes through the municipality, 160 metres deep and barely 10 metres wide. It originated from an old weir (azud) that regulated the river's water for the valley's irrigation system, from which it takes its popular name. Today it is one of the best-known spots for swimming and hiking along the Turia canyon.
