The Contreras dam (Embalse de Contreras) is a 129-meter-high arch dam built in 1972. Located on the border of the provinces of Cuenca (Castilla-La Mancha) and Valencia, the dam spans the Cabriel and Guadazaón rivers. The reservoir serves mainly for water supply, flood protection, and irrigation.

The town is located on the banks of the Cabriel River and is on the border between Castilla-La Mancha and the Valencia region.

Viewpoint next to the old N-III highway After passing the engineer's house, a turnoff leads to the viewpoint located above the old N-III highway. Sweeping views of the reservoir from a high, accessible point.

Hiking: Popular routes, such as the "Engineer's House" trail, offer viewpoints overlooking the reservoir and the Cabriel River gorges. Guided tours: Occasionally, the Hydrographic Confederation and the Villargordo Town Council organize tours and talks in the village of Contreras. Historic roads: The abandoned section of the old N-III highway and the Contreras Hills attract engineering enthusiasts, with their original 20th-century asphalt and signage.
