Leaving from the Plaza de los Artesanos (or Plaza de la Encina), next to the viewpoint of the reservoir, follow the road that descends to the Marina de Cervera. Passing the access to the Marina, we will continue along the road about 500 mts. And we will find a road that leaves to the left, closed by a wattle that avoids the passage of vehicles. This is the Mill Road and continuing through it we will reach the reservoir, under whose waters the old mill is submerged.
