Conservation: The spring is surrounded by a locked fence to protect it; a water pump is inside the small area. The place remains in pristine condition (Artigas Azas, 2023), although I noticed a lower water level than during my last visit, which could be a seasonal situation. No exotic species are so far present in the stream.
