Villa del Rey is the village of the Region Tagus-Salor-Almonte with major number of drovers´ roads, up to a whole of thirteen legally classified. It is curious that a small village has more drovers´ roads than other municipal areas as vast as those of Alcántara and Brozas. So, in this route of the Pools, which might be named route of the Colada and watering places for farm animals, can be known up to nine of these thirteen drovers´ roads. This fact justifies the great interest of this tracing. This patrimonial value of the drovers´ roads is very huge but it is necessary to add 4 pools through which it passes. In there, we can find a mill, a washer of wools and are a suitable habitat for aquatic birds.

On the one hand, it seems that one of the main tourist resources of Villa del Rey are its drovers´ roads. Those drovers´ roads are very useful if we order them and disseminate them to be correctly employed.
On the other, the landscape is assorted, as there are wetlands, granitic stones, besides the Boyal Pasture, an opened space that will surely turn out to be interesting for the visitor. In this area, a tower of observation has been installed, like in the area of Mata. The hilly and closed areas of the Colada of the Montosa complement the natural environment, as these are slightly modified lands.

The route departs from the urban centre to go towards García´s Pool through Navas del Madroño way. From here, the route crosses the estate of Cabeza Jartín -good place to see cranes- to take the way that goes from Brozas to the Pool of Cueto; Then, we have to leave this point of the way from Garrovillas road to Mata, and rapidly take Colada of the Montosa, which takes us to the Boyal Pasture; after that and following drovers´ roads we will manage to come again to the outdoor picnic of the Pool of the Lagoon through the popular Way of the Washers, place where women used to wash the clothes in the transparent puddles of the Jartín river.
