In the Tentudia region in the gardens in order to water the plants it was very common to find waterwells pushed with a donkey or a mule, turning around a well.
Usually there was a young boy in charge of the animal to make sure that it didn´t stop turning. The mule had its eyes covered to avoid distraction and dizziness. Today there is a few active waterwells. From Biensevive we intend to recover this tradition and we are undertaking and studying the possibility of bringing back the traditional use of mules to get water in our land.
When you come around for our walking and trekking holidays to Sierra the Tentudia we will make you part of this adventure. Remember that what we are doing in Biensevive is to go back to basics, and to do it is very difficult task for nowadays way of life, we believe that there are a lot of things yet to learn from our ancestors, and if we don´t do it now it will be gone forever.
