Embalse de Guadalest

Impresionante embalse de color turquesa, ideal para nadar y practicar deportes acuáticos. Situado en un valle rodeado por las montañas más altas de Alicante (España).

El embalse de Guadalest se encuentra a los pies del pueblo de Guadalest, en la provincia de Alicante. Está rodeado de montañas y naturaleza. Recibe agua principalmente del río Guadalest (afluente del Algar). Es un río muy irregular, tiene mucha agua cuando llueve y muy poca cuando no llueve. El embalse de Guadalest se construyó (en 1969) para que siempre hubiera agua para regar.

El entorno del Embalse de Guadalestes uno de sus principales tesoros. El valle de Guadalest está rodeado por las montañas de Aitana, Serrella y Xortà. Aitana es la más alta de toda la Comunidad Valenciana (1.558 metros). La zona del embalse de Guadalest está clasificada como Suelo No Urbanizable de Especial Protección para las Cosas, por lo que está bien conservada. Pequeños pueblos blancos salpican las laderas del valle, de los cuales Guadalest es el más conocido. Fue declarado Conjunto Histórico-Artístico en 1974 y uno de los 'Pueblos más bonitos de España'. El Castillo de Guadalest se encuentra en lo alto de una roca (a una altitud de 595 m). Ofrece impresionantes vistas panorámicas sobre el valle y el embalse.
