Legend of La Gomera: CHORROS DE EPINA

 

CHORROS DE EPINA

On the municipality of Vallehermoso, in La Gomera, exist some jets that emerge water from the inside of the mountain: crystalline and clean water, that shows perfectly the reflects of someone who lean out there.


The rumors of the place, say that when someone lean on, the jets can predict their future of love. Presenting it of two different ways: 

-If the water keeps calm: the person had already found love of find it soon. That love would be pacific and without discussions.

-If the water get aggressive: indicates that the love of that person would be impossible of find it.


The legend also tells that “if you drink from the 7 pipes, you will get married in 1 year”. Love, health and fortune concentrated in the waters of the Chorros de Epina. One last story tells that the ladies of Vallehermoso sent their servants to fetch water from the miraculous spring. A long walk. To avoid any deception, they asked them to bring a leaf from the only aderno of the island located in the area. Unequivocal proof that the water was truly taken from the Epina spring.

 

The number of jets has increased over time. Formerly there were not seven but four that formed the Chorros de Epina. The first of them provided health, the second love, the third wealth and there is no reference to the fourth, although it seems that it could attribute the gift of joy and poetry. Currently they are a must-see place on a trip to La Gomera.
