Lago

Montefurado is largely abandoned, apart from a few still occupied houses. One of them has a tap you can use for drinking water but ask first as a courtesy. There is also a small chapel dedicated to Santiago.

The Road

Pass through town and follow the trail to your left. You will have to step over a small wall. When the trail rejoins the road (AS-14) a few km onward, you can either stay on the track or follow along the road to Lago.

The tap/faucet does indeed exist, and from it (once one pushes the button) gushes forth deliciously cold and very welcome water. Once you arrive in Montefurado, which is a like a Minecraft village, advance a few meters and you’ll find it on the right hand side of the door of house no.2.

I searched everywhere for the water tap and there was nothing. I even knocked on someone’s door and he was really mean, didn’t even want to give me some water while I had nothing left. It was 32 degrees and I was sooo thirsty and he just told me to get out of there and to get water in Lago but it’s still 4km away with the heat and all the comments of this fountain said that it was broken. I tried to explain to him but I was apologizing because my Spanish wasn’t very good. And that’s when he said «  if you can’t even speak Spanish, get out of here ». I’m speechless oh how some people can be so heartless.

Next to the front door of the house there is a water tap. I was able to fill my bottle
