  - Algar Water Falls  
 

One of the most visited attractions in the region, is without doubt the Algar Water Falls, on the outskirts of Callosa Dén Sarria. As you follow the winding river you are able to bathe in the mountain water beneath the falls, and relax under the giant trees that are abundant in the area.

 
 

A special experience is a day out to the "Fonts dŽAlgar at Callosa dŽEn Sarriá.

The journey alone is worthwhile, with a breathtaking backdrop of orange and nispero groves lining either side of the route. One of the features that makes Callosa dŽEn Sarrìa particularly attractive is the rural beauty of its Nature Park, where the Fonts dŽAlgar are situated. The Fonts are generally known as the "Font de Fonts" (Spring of all Springs), and you will see why when you pay them a visit.

From Callosa it is a short and simple journey to the Fonts, which are well signposted. On leaving Callosa the scene is already set: on your right hand side you are afforded a wonderful view of the valleyŽs water canals and sumptuous greenery of the Nature Park. The Fonts themselves comprise numerous small springs which converge to form the beautiful waterfall and small lagoons of the "Fonts dŽAlgar". There are many different paths to ramble through and explore, as well as the natural pools, which are supplied by the famous DŽAlgar waterfall. In summer a day out to the springs is a great alternative to the beach, as the spring waters reach a cool and refreshing temperature of approximately 18°C - donŽt forget your swimming things! There are also many shady spots where you can relax and soak up the atmosphere of the beautiful surroundings.

The Fonts DŽAlgar has its own restaurant, plus barbecue and picnic facilities. There is also a specially designated camping area. Further attractions include an environmental museum and a horticultural nursery, where a duct system utilises the natural springs waters to irrigate the plants and trees.
