Drinking water point at the old Zafarraya line

Highlight • Rest Area

Right next to the former Ventas de Zafarraya station, you'll find this classic cast-iron water pump. It's perfect for refilling your water bottle or flask before continuing into the mountains.

Thanks to the shade provided by the trees, it's also a pleasant spot for a short break.
