More than 20 volunteer camps have been held in this aqueduct with the participation of more than 450 volunteers. The tasks carried out by the volunteers have been in the field of architecture, civil engineering, history, biology, archaeology, carpentry, among others. The project aims to involve the local community in this enhancement and generate a tourist, economic, cultural and social development of the region. The aqueduct is a construction from the XVII century of 1.5 kilometers of development in which the use of limestone and partition is observed, joined with mortar of slaked lime and river sand, as well as scraps of the same rock. Its formation is, basically, a succession of semicircular arches throughout its development.
